At New Ulm Public High School we offer a Digital Art class which shows kids how to use Photoshop and basic photo and video editing tools. Some of these skills can be used in everyday life for some people. Artists use these tools in graphic design, animation, special effects, and industrial design to plan or make pictures that relate to their professions. As the Princeton Review says “A digital artist makes art using the computer as his or her primary tool. This art can be intended for a CD-ROM, video game, or website; but almost as often, it is printed out and hung on a wall. Individuals who crave stability, please note: Change in this field is constant. Whether you’re an illustrator, graphic designer, animator, or game designer, the software you use is constantly evolving. Depending on the company they work for, digital artists may wear many different hats and contribute to five or six projects at one time. Most of their day is spent developing an interface for a project, drawing pictures, assembling the art, and making buttons for users to click on.” Now days some of the art coming out of the digital community is based around the election and decisions that are unfolding and coming out of it. Most of this art is very planned and well made and its because they have had years of experience in this profession. After taking the Digital Art class I can personally say that i’m glad that I learned these beneficial tools for my life and would advise anybody to take this class.
