Last month, we visited CTE Teacher Alicia Meehan's class at Winlock Middle High School to see some of the incredible graphic design and animation projects her students have been working on. Students are using the industry standard digital illustration program Procreate to produce beautiful works of art, as seen in the video. They are also creating animations by building movement frame-by-frame, a time-intensive process that is helping them develop valuable skills for their future.
More recently, students wrapped up a lesson on seamless patterns that transitions directly into apparel and product design; these patterns can be applied to various projects, and even offer students a potential passive income stream once they turn 18.
