Publisher's Synopsis
It takes more than raw talent and passion to make it in today's global apparel and accessories markets—excellent computer-aided design skills are a prerequisite. CAD for Fashion Design and Merchandising allows students to immediately begin creating digital fashion presentations using Adobe Illustrator® and Photoshop®. This book takes an integrated approach, allowing students to master the three-dimensional benefits of combining the two software programs. Colorful illustrations accompany easy, step-by-step tutorials that are geared toward students at the beginner and intermediate levels. Because the book uses fashion photography rather than hand-drawn illustrations as a basis for demonstrating the proportion of fashion croquis, instructors will be able to evaluate students' mastery of digital illustration regardless of their hand-drawing skills, and students will benefit from a seamless transition from creative thought to digital rendering.Introducing CAD for Fashion Design and Merchandising STUDIO--an online tool for more effective study!~Study smarter with self-quizzes featuring scored results and personalized study tips.~Review concepts with flashcards of terms and definitions.~Access modeling agency images of models and images for trend and mood boards.~View movies demonstrating CS6 applications and other complex processes.~Further your knowledge with additional practice and supplementary techniques.~Enhance your learning with a library of fabric swatches and trims.~Redeeming the code inside this card will give you full access to the content previously contained on the DVD or CD packaged with this book.
