The changing face of magazines illustrates this need for multi-skilled designers perfectly. As print magazines move online, graphic designers must incorporate interactivity and motion graphics into their layouts, illustrations and advertisements. Conversely digital designers must now understand the role of traditional design disciplines, such as branding, typography and illustration, as these areas become more prominent in the digital space. Our Communication Design degree has been developed with this in mind and will equip graduates with skills and knowledge that are relevant to the marketplace. The program at Monash is unique as it combines visual communication, multimedia and motion graphicsinto one innovative degree. Download the powerpoint presentation (1.65mb, PDF) |
