Welcome to My Portfolio!!!

Using computer software, desktop publishers format and combine text, numerical data, photographs, charts, and other visual graphic elements to produce publication-ready material. Depending on the nature of a particular project, desktop publishers may write and edit text, create graphics to accompany text, convert photographs and drawings into digital images and then manipulate those images, design page layouts, create proposals, develop presentations and advertising campaigns, typeset and do color separation, and translate electronic information onto film or other traditional forms. Materials produced by desktop publishers include books, business cards, calendars, magazines, newsletters and newspapers, packaging, slides, and tickets. As companies have brought the production of marketing, promotional, and other kinds of materials in-house, they increasingly have employed people who can produce such materials.

Are you creative and enjoy putting images, graphic, text and photos together to create publications ranging from simple business cards to high-end book and magazine design? This program is the first step toward a career in the commercial graphics industry, based on new technology. This program emphasizes on learning the skills and techniques of computer graphics, digital imaging, and production. Students will initially learn how to direct and control the flow of advertising design in both web and print media using cutting-edge computer graphic applications such as Adobe Dreamweaver (Formerly Macromedia), Adobe Flash, QuarkXPress, Adobe InDesign, AfterEffect, and Photoshop, Illustrator, and Autodesk Maya. Program Available at CBT Kendall and Flagler campuses.
