ABSTRACT

Graphics are text and illustrations on a surface meant to present some kind of information or art. Prop builders use graphics to make all kinds of paper props, such as newspapers, book covers, and train tickets. Any document with heavy use of graphics, such as magazine covers, brochures, and restaurant menus, may be easier to create with desktop publishing rather than just with a word processor. A graphics tablet is a computer device which consists of a flat surface and a special pen or stylus. The resolution of a digital image can be measured in ppi, or pixels per inch. The farther away people will be from prop builder prop, the lower their resolution can be. Generally, vector images are used for logos, text, and heavily graphic designs. Raster images are used for photographs and scanned artwork. Common raster image formats include JPG, GIF, PNG, and BMP.
