Strath Haven High School Graphic Design Program             Ms. Leslie Taylor - ltaylor@wssd.org

The overall goal of the Strath Haven High School's Graphic Design program is to develop the creative talents and skills of students using computer driven software programs. Graphic Designers shape our visual environment through the experimentation and use of image, form, and typography. Americans live in a society that is communicating more and more through visual images. They are bombarded on a daily basis by a constantly changing torrent of messages from billboards, magazines, architecture, newspapers, television, and films. New technology controlled by computers combine words, pictures, and sound to convey information at a breathtaking pace. Students in the Strath Haven Graphic Design program learn to decipher, create, and express themselves through visual images. Project-based learning includes advertising, editorial page design, posters, and package design. Students will learn color theory, advanced imaging techniques using digital cameras, scanners, and Adobe software (Photoshop and Illustrator)
