Are you interested in increasing your capacity to integrate quick hand graphics and computer graphics?
How you can interface between AutoCAD, Sketch-up and Photoshop in your studio projects?
Creating quick ‘wire frame’ drawings?
Adding ‘digital entourage’ – where to find it, how to use it?

During this workshop, James will present and demonstrate advanced 2D and 3D graphic techniques and aid
workshop participants in using these techniques in their own studio work. The workshop is intended for
and is particularly well-suited for those students who have some ‘working comfort’ with AutoCAD, Photoshop
and/or Sketch-Up.

For increased success, students are expected to bring in their own laptops pre-loaded with AutoCAD,
Sketch-Up and Photoshop. While the computer is expected, students should also have access to their
own basic hand drawing equipment (trace, tape, pencils, technical pens and colour media).
