SND Denver Quick Course:
Web Design Workshop
Thursday, September 23, 2010 in Denver
This one-day course, before the 2010 SND Denver Workshop, bridges the gap between print design traditions and the untapped potential of the Web.
Perfect for anyone looking to translate their proficiency in typography, information architecture, art direction, grids and editorial judgment using HTML and CSS — the D.N.A. of the Internet.
If speaking “Web” were a foreign language, consider this your immersion course. Both beginners and those in need of a refresher welcome. This is a condensed and more design-centric session than the two-day boot camp that has sold out around the country.
If it seems overwhelming, we’re here to prove it’s not.
