Friends of Design – Illustrator Tutorial
Study Abroad Semester
If you are a foreign undergraduate design student in digital/graphic or new media design – then this is for you!
Friends of Design offers 4th Semester students an amazing opportunity to spend 3 months in Cape Town, at our Academy, on a program that fits into your current graphic design study program.
3 month programs:
2012 – Program A – 7 February – 27 April
2012 – Program B – 4 September – 30 November
Program details
Part of your week will be spent in our studios, engaged in digital training and exciting, conceptually rich “live” projects in both print and new media design. Have a look at our student gallery for samples of work done by previous students from Hamburg & Berlin.
Our centrally located studios are equipped with the best and latest design software and equipment. Our lecturers are industry experienced trainers, designers and commercial artists. With us you will get excellent software training, inclusive of essential production techniques and conceptual work. By the end of it you will have up to 6 great new design pieces to add to your portfolio.
The remainder of your week will be filled with formal English lessons, time to research and work on your projects – and time to enjoy the city and surrounding areas.
So, why do it?
Here are the facts, in a nutshell:
* You will experience the culture of an exciting, different multi-cultural country with the most progressive and modern constitution in the world.
* You will boost your portfolio with many more practical advertising projects for your final portfolio.
* You will receive quality training – delivered in a funky, creative environment.
* You will continue your normal studies and even further enhance your portfolio as you are influenced by the impressions and experiences of studying abroad and let’s face it – in Africa!
* You get to improve your English – vastly.
* You will enjoy (on a daily basis) the beautifully hip city of Cape Town. Its gorgeous beaches and mountain landscapes, the famous wine-lands and the friendly South African hospitality that makes Cape Town such a popular travel destination amongst Europeans, and Germans in particular.
