This one-semester course offers a foundational introduction to the Adobe Creative Cloud (CC) suite, focusing on building practical skills in two industry-standard applications: Adobe Photoshop for digital image editing and Adobe Premiere Pro for video production. The first section of the course provides guided, project-based instruction to master essential tools, layers, and workflows in these programs. After that students will transition to a self-exploration model, where they select and independently investigate other applications with guided curriculum—such as Illustrator, InDesign, or After Effects— and others.
