WEB ART & DESIGN
About the course
This studio course focused on web design fundamentals of building and designing websites. In addition, I was also introduced to the history, theory and best practices of web design and art through readings, assignments and hands-on lectures. Topics included compositional principles of the web page, layout and navigation design, color schemes for the web, effective uses of multimedia incorporation non-linear narratives. Through several small-scale projects, I learned how to implement HTML, CSS and JQuery (or the current industry standards of web design technologies) in website design and creation.

INTERACTIVE MEDIA
About the course
This studio course focused on learning basic industry standard programming and scripting skills used by artists and designers. Through readings, assignments and hands-on lectures, I was introduced to interactive media design concepts and practices and the technology that drives them. In addition, I learned to incorporate programming to further enhance content created in areas such as digital imaging, graphic design, video, animation and web design. This course built upon skills that I had developed in Web Art and Design.
