Abstract

The Five Pillars of Graphic Design consists of an investigation carried out to students of the Graphic Design Career, Faculty of Architecture and Design of the Central Campus and the Regional Center of San Miguelito of various academic levels, where the importance of structuring in the mind is highlighted of the student from the first course of design of the curriculum of this specialty the bases of the use of typography, composition, color theory, illustration techniques and creativity, which we have proposed are the essence to face projects in general in advanced courses . Obtain a diagnosis on the knowledge of these issues, before and after applying the audiovisual methodology of The Five Pillars of Graphic Design. The design-based research methodology was used, providing a new element to reinforce the fundamental themes of design, through five audiovisuals, one for each design pillar. Pre-test and post-test will be applied to assess knowledge before and after reinforcement. In the comparison of the pre and post test, there is evidence of the same amount of mistakes and successes in the knowledge of the fundamentals of Graphic Design, but the percentage of improvement in the questions is greater than the mistakes. At the end of the study, the need to reinforce the contents of the five pillars of Graphic Design is reflected in the groups of students studying Graphic Design. The audiovisuals served to strengthen issues such as typography and composition. Greater consolidation is required in matters of color, illustration and creativity. It is suggested to reinforce and / or restructure the study plan of the career or include in the first years, specific reinforcement workshops for the mastery of the pillars of every good designer.
