Практика на курсі

During the course students will create a campaign around any piece they feel compelled to: a cover artwork, animation, posters, or merch.

If the student chooses artwork they will be asked to design an album artwork and an artwork for some singles. If they choose animation, they will have to make loops for socials and Spotify. During the course the work will be reviewed with feedback to deliver the full project. On this final project we will be working with a real artist from the world of music!

During the course, students will work with Adobe Illustrator, Adobe Photoshop, Adobe After Effects, Blender 3D and Adobe Premiere.
