Elearning Material
Typically, Instructional Designers have teaching backgrounds, it may seem that initially, I'm in a new world, but it's not. When it comes to building a curriculum, do teachers realize they apply the same techniques as advertising and graphic designers to create engaging experiences?
Photography
Stock sites are great; however, what if you want to personalize the background with your office, classroom, or specific location. My parents bought me my first camera in kindergarten, a Kodak Polaroid; since then, I have always thought about spaces, people, shapes, and colors when creating what is framed.
Graphic Design
Someone once implied that anyone can do graphic design, that all you have to do is move images around on a page until it looks pretty. I disagree with this thought; like instructional design, there is a lot of thought put into the purpose of the visual elements. The direction of the content is just as important as the visible part; graphic design is not flat; it is dimensional; overall goal, is the visual and messaging creating proper action for the audience? Sound familiar?
