Graphic Communications Department

Visual communications has fallen under many different names over the years, including commercial art, graphic design, advertising design, magazine and newspaper layout, paste up and production, printing, graphic arts and graphic communications. The bottom line is if you want to learn how to create, produce and reproduce visual graphics that communicate to an audience, then graphic communications is for you. TMCC's graphic communications program teaches the theories and applications necessary to get a job in this exciting field.

With the development of Web site design, multimedia/digital video production, interactivity 2D and 3D animation, the program has grown to include many of these areas called digital media. The program uses the most popular graphics software, including InDesign, Illustrator, Photoshop, Acrobat, Dreamweaver, Fireworks, Flash, Final Cut, Lightwave and Swift 3D software. Our computer labs are equipped with the latest PowerMac G5 and Mac Duo Intel computers with support scanners, black and white and color printers, and a complete prepress/print shop facility.
