What's Happening in Graphic Arts

Graphic Arts will be sending seniors off to their first internship site at NH Bindery next week. They will learn how the graphics they create in the classroom get applied to actual industry publications. They will be able to see  the process up close with the added bonus of making their own custom sketch book. Next month, seniors will be preparing for industry certification by preparing to take the Adobe Certification Associate exam in Photoshop. We are the only school in both high school and college in NH to offer our students the opportunity to take this exam. It propels students to such a high level of understanding and knowledge, they essentially become qualified, as high school students, to teach Photoshop. Juniors are in the process of learning the basics of graphic design principles utilizing Photoshop to work on projects. They will soon be shifting gears to learn Illustrator, a vector based program. Up ahead will be entries into video editing with Premiere, 3D modeling and animation using 3DS Max and website work using WordPress. As always, industry professionals and colleges come in to speak directly to the Graphic Arts students.
