In the field of Art and Design, the use of technology and software is heavily relied upon to create and publish our creative ideas. While there are many options available for hardware and software, our program works on the Apple platform. We also use the Apple Pro Suite of software that includes Logic Pro, Final Cut Pro, and Compressor. We also use the Adobe Suite of software that includes Illustrator, Photoshop, Premiere Pro, Audition, and After Effects.

​

This page contains a variety of materials to introduce you to the Apple platform and the Adobe Suite of programs to prepare you for the industry where these tools are used. Our program requires students to watch a series of videos, read tutorials, and presentations followed by an exam to take possession of and use for the program.
