<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>Fuses design fundamentals and software training into one cohesive approach! <p/> All students of digital design and production-whether learning in a classroom or on their own-need to understand the basic principles of design. These principles are often excluded from books that teach software. <em><strong>Foundations of Digital Art and Design</strong></em> reinvigorates software training by integrating design exercises into tutorials that fuse design fundamentals and core Adobe Creative Cloud skills. <p/> The result is a comprehensive design learning experience organised into five sections that focus on vector art, photography, image manipulation, typography, and effective work habits for digital artists. Design topics and principles include: Bits, Dots, Lines, Shapes, Unity, Rule of Thirds, Zone System, Color Models, Collage, Appropriation, Gestalt, The Bauhaus Basic Course Approach, Continuity, Automation, and Revision. <p/> This book: <ul> <li>Teaches art and design principles with references to contemporary digital art alongside digital tools and processes in Adobe Creative Cloud </li> <li>Addresses the growing trend of compressing design fundamentals and design software into the same course in universities and design colleges </li> <li>Times each lesson to be used in 50 to 90-minute class sessions with additional practice materials available online </li> <li>Includes free video screencasts that demonstrate key concepts in every chapter </li> </ul><p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br></p> <b><i>Foundations of Digital Art and Design, Second Edition</p></p> </p></i></b> Fuses design fundamentals and software training into one cohesive approach!</p> </p> All students of digital design and production-whether learning in a classroom or on their own-need to understand the basic principles of design.
