Rendering I: Re-designed this course to reflect the modern demands of illustration. Rendering I focuses on drawing and interpreting tone, light, and shadow effectively while learning to render a wide range of subjects using traditional media. This course incorporates Adobe Photoshop as a support tool for scanning and color correction..Illustration Fundamentals: I created a new course text including 9 assignments on perspective followed by 4 assignments on basic illustration media/techniques. Course assignments can be viewed at http://illustrationfundamentals.blogspot.com/Digital Illustration I: This course introduces Adobe Illustrator CS5 and focuses on pen path basics, importing images, creating and managing type and basic illustration using blends, gradients, and the gradient mesh tool.Concept Illustration: I designed Concept Illustration as a new required course within the MACA program. A blend of digital and traditional illustration, this Concept Illustration focuses on interpreting client directions and concepts and creating illustrations that effectively solve visualization challenges posed to students. Course assignments can be viewed at http://garthglaziersthebeautifulline.blogspot.com/My Text book for Rendering 1 was published through MCC in 2008 and copies are available to view on request in hard copy or CD form.
