What is Capstone?
My name is Nicole and I am in my senior year of earning my Bachelor’s of Fine Arts in Digital Media. For our Senior course, we have to take what is called Digital Media Capstone. What is Capstone you may be wondering? To minimize wording, it is a two-part course that allows you to create and focus on the development and production of a visual communication project. During these projects, you get to use your skills acquired throughout your previous semesters to test your ability as a designer.

In this process, I am not just a student, but a designer. I have learned essentials throughout the school year to put into practice visual communication. As a designer, it is important to know, not only how to communicate with potential clients but what material is going to capture their audience’s attention. The capstone allows designers, such as myself, to experience first-hand prototypes, case studies, ideation, brainstorming, and research. Here we define who our target is, and learn the brand’s and client’s identity.
I look forward to posting the progress of these projects in the future. I will be uploading them to this blog, so stay tuned and learn along with me! This assignment is for my Senior Capstone project. The following link is for the course and its requirements
