Students will explore a wide range of design disciplines firsthand through hands-on projects, including graphic design, fashion design, architecture, industrial design, illustration, character design, and more.
Foundation & Careers in Design is designed for students who are interested in art and creativity but may not yet understand the many different fields of design or the career opportunities available to them. Each project gives students an opportunity to experience what it is like to work in a particular design field and discover the different ways creative skills can be applied.
With more than 30 years of experience in art school admissions, Francy Caprino brings extensive experience in art education and career counseling. She has helped many students discover what kind of artist or designer they want to become and explore the college majors and career opportunities connected to their interests. Her guidance helps students better understand where their creativity and skills can take them and begin thinking about their future direction in art and design.
As students explore different design fields, they will develop a deeper understanding of the elements and principles of design, including line, shape, form, color, texture, space, composition, balance, and proportion. Students will see how these elements affect the appearance, communication, function, and overall impact of a design, allowing them to learn through making rather than simply studying design concepts.
