Digital-Tutors - Principles of Graphic Design

In this series of lessons focusing on the basic principles of graphic design

We'll begin by learning about composition and how every design element works together inside a composition. From there, we'll learn about both symmetrical and asymmetrical balance and discuss some basic rules of thumb for dividing space within a composition. Next we'll learn about establishing a focal point within a design by creating emphasis. Then, we'll learn about rhythm and how it affects the flow of our work. We'll move on from there and talk about unifying a composition using grouping, harmony and alignment. Finally, we'll learn about the importance of creating areas of contrast within a design.
