Peter Koons has been involved in graphic arts since the earliest days of digital imaging. Founder of High Resolution, Inc., Maine's first 2400dpi imagesetting service bureau, in 1986, Peter has been immersed in most facets of design and production of graphics and imaging for publications, commercial printing, fine art, as well as web development. Peter is currently the Director of Communications and IT at Maine Media Workshops + College and is instrumental in the maintenance of the mainemedia.edu web site as well as team leader for the print catalog production. Since heading the on-campus digital graphic arts lab at Kodak's Center for Creative Imaging in Camden, in the early nineties, Peter has continued teaching workshops and adult education classes in Adobe's Creative Suite, and receives rave evaluations from his students.
Designing Interactive Publications
With the proliferation of mobile devices, the ability to add interactivity to publications is becoming not just a possibility but a necessity for people and institutions wishing to reach the broadest population possible with compelling content. Adobe has built their Creative Suite to allow the traditional print designer to easily incorporate interactive features into their designs. Participants in this workshop explore the crossover functionality of InDesign, Acrobat and Dreamweaver to create dynamic interactive publications. Students should have a working knowledge of InDesign.
