Invitation to our class Discord channel avc-248-design-self-promotion
This platform is another way for online students to connect and get more support on their coursework. It acts like a closed social media community. The instructor will post announcements there and this is where we will hold critiques for our projects. Feel free to ask questions in our class channel, your classmates may answer your questions or start a discussion. You may also find other relevant events, links to jobs and basic needs resources. It’s also a great place to ask questions about hardware/software and watch what students in classes are working on.
After you sign on to Slack, Browse Channels in the left column. Add yourself to the topics that interest you as well as the #AVC248_discussion and #AVC248_projects class groups. You can select the star at the top of the channel near the title so those always go to the top of your window.
Please do not post large files to Slack since we are using the free version, there is a limit to how much we can post. If you are uploading a video or animation, you can put it into Vimeo first then just add the link to the video, not the entire video. For 2d files, please save as a PDF for screen, not print or a JPG. Do not post a file saved in native format like Photoshop or InDesign.
The course material will all be here in Canvas, Slack is just another way for you to connect. If you have used Slack in another semester, please use the same account. If you have not, please use this link to sign up:
