Visual Design Academy (CHS)
The Visual Design Academy provides highly motivated students with rigorous study in industry-standard design software, principles, concepts, and techniques. Emphasis is placed on hands-on and real-world application of skills and techniques. Coursework is project-based as students take their designs from concept all the way through to the final product. During the Capstone classes, students work on a live design job(s) for a community client(s).
