The web browser is the main portal to all of the content we consume in the digital medium. On our laptops, mobile phones and even smart watches. Web design is a multidisciplinary challenge the combines graphic design, typography, illustration, image making, video and sound. It relays on the basic markup and styling tools (HTML & CSS) and became a main expression tool for leading contemporary designers. The course deals with the role of the designer as the master of these tools. What was only a few years ago the sole domain of developers is now in the hands of designers and became a tool to create new and unique experiences. In this course we will learn and experience in all of the design aspects of this medium, from choosing a grid to user experience. The course is not a technical course and doesn’t require any previous knowledge. It’s for all future designers and illustrators that want to impact the infinite space of the internet. Topics covered in the course: HTML / CSS / Javascript, Typography in the browser, Animation and UI interaction, trends in web design, responsive design and more...

The course will introduce students for the first time with designing and realising 3d virtual objects and environments. The course will start by introducing primitive 3d shapes while focusing on creating and manipulating a single object. Students will then progress to working on a series of objects which share similar attributes but express different character. By the end of the course we will create a fully realised 3d environment considerate of points of view, structure, rhythm and mood. In this course we will highlight methods of self-learning and ways to keep progressing independently in this new medium. By the end of the course students will earn a new and powerful tool for creating images, designs, illustrations and assets for real time environments with a broad understanding of shapes, materials, lighting and spatial design.

In this class we’ll learn how to animate for non-linear timelines and games. We’ll understand the basic fundamentals which enrich animated assets with character and depth. During the course we’ll design and stylize characters, events and backgrounds - for animation, and by animation. We’ll create special effects in classic and digital animation, as well as develop skills and push boundaries in other various animation techniques. Students will create a modular system to connect units of animated loops and cycles to be controlled by a user - all in relation to the dramatic specifications of the narrative.
