Course Description

This course emphasizes the concepts and processes involved with drawing directly into the computer. Using a digitizing pen and interactive LCD display as the primary tool and bitmap and vector applications as the primary medium, students explore form and space through direct and indirect observation, including studies involving the human figure and motion. Drawing the human form in space prepares students for sequential art and animation and further develops essential drawing and design skills. Traditional drawing tools and materials are incorporated.
