Details: We will be holding three workshops for high school students.
1. "Design Clothes by Combining Adobe Software"
DTP (desktop publishing) software is no longer just for designing books, magazines, and posters!
You can even do fashion design by combining Adobe software.
In this workshop, you will use multiple software applications to design clothing patterns and fabric prints on a computer.
Any high school student is welcome to participate, regardless of their focus on humanities, sciences, or arts.

[Location] Tokyo Midtown, 4F Conference, Room 8
*Software used: Adobe Photoshop, Adobe Illustrator
*Capacity: 10 people
2. "Hack and Design Everyday Objects"
The potential of Adobe software now extends beyond paper and screens.
By connecting to digital fabrication tools like laser cutters, you can "print" data onto all kinds of materials, including fabric, wood, and stone.
Come experience a new way of making things by hacking common items from home improvement centers and 100-yen shops.
[Time] Saturday, November 21, 2015, 2:30 PM–4:00 PM
[Location] Tokyo Midtown, B1F Hall, openB
*Software used: Adobe Photoshop, Adobe Illustrator

3. "Create Graphic Designs with Programming"
This is a workshop where you will practice graphic design unique to computers using PostScript, known as the origin of Adobe.
You will learn the syntax and writing methods of PostScript and practice algorithmic drawing and layout through programming.
We look forward to the participation of high school students from a wide range of fields, whether in humanities, sciences, or arts.

On the same day, in the same venue as this workshop, we will be holding other sessions for high school students, such as the "SFC Course for High School Students."
This is an opportunity for SFC faculty to talk about what you can learn and what you can work on at SFC—things you can't hear anywhere else. If you are interested in SFC, please be sure to attend.
We eagerly await your participation!
