Graphic Design: Posters

From Broadsheets to Banners: Poster Design Theory and Practice
Our world is a designed hybrid of text and image. Understanding the constructions that intertwine these component parts is an essential skill, which graphic design explicitly engages. In this course we will explore its history and practice through poster design. This format offers a variety of challenges for beginning designers in its uses of direction, narrative, and illustration, and central to the course will be the history and theory of poster design, mixing research and studio exercises. Each student will choose and research their own topic, and design and exhibit an 18” x 24” poster.
