Web Design - Media Design & Production
Overview
The Digital Media Design and Production program prepares students for career launching positions in graphic design and production. Target jobs include web designer, visual designer, print production specialist, and media developer. These positions are typically found at advertising agencies, new media/web development firms, the creative departments of larger organizations, and among independent contractors serving these businesses.
To prepare for a career in graphic design & production, Madison Media Institute students develop a solid grounding in design principles covering layout, color, and typography.
Students put these principles to work using a suite of industry-standard software applications, including Adobe PhotoShop®, Adobe Illustrator®, Adobe Flash®, Adobe Dreamweaver®, and Adobe InDesign®. For production work, students use a variety of hardware, including web servers, digital cameras, light kits, scanners, and color printers.
In addition to these skills, web design schools offering programs like MMI’s Digital Media Design & Production degree program, introduce students to the business aspects of the new media business, copyright laws, and breaking trends in the graphic design industry.
