Learning Goals

General objectives: The classes aim to provide theoretical references and practices in Design, Visual Arts and Multimedia with a focus in the area of content-editing tools at an advanced level, and to explore empirical stimuli in the visual perception. It is also intent to develop the skills of analysis and critical sense, the control of software at the advanced level of practical exercises based on functional and aesthetic criteria. This will be achieved through the creation and assembly of bitmap images and vector constructed by the student and emulation of natural environments.
Specific Objectives: The aim is to enhance and develop the control of illustration, processing and photo retouching for photography, video and animation through digital editing tools. The student must be endowed with skills that enable him to respond on a professional advanced level to a brief using illustration and digital retouching and treatment ito the areas of Design, Visual Arts and Multimedia.

Teaching Methods

The methodology is based on a series of structured lessons and may resort to the Department's projects, commercial projects, competitions, research projects, conferences, seminars and workshops. Continuous assessment will be based on attendance, with high rates of participation in activities in the classroom, whether individually or in groups, development and resolution of projects, meeting deadlines and academic progress in knowledge and practice of the student as a potential professional in the area.
The final assessment is a time for general discussion of the route taken by the student during the semester, based on his ability to respond to the project and its implementation, quality presentation and communication skills.

Assessment

Assessment is continuous with intermediate assessments and, at the end of the semester, a final assessment in the form of an Examining Board.

The final assessment consists of a general discussion of the student's journey during the semester, based on their ability to respond to the project and its implementation, the quality of the presentation, and communication skills.
