Abstract

This community service through workshops and creative design training activities is carried out as a form of contribution to increasing the capacity of the community in visual communication or expressing into the visual aspects of a concept or idea. The main goal of this activity is to transfer basic knowledge about the principles of graphic design and develop the ability of participants to pour ideas into a form of visual work that is communicative and has aesthetic value. The training is conducted with a participatory approach that combines theory and practice in a balanced manner, using digital media such as CorelDRAW Graphics Suite 2022 to facilitate the learning process. Participants consisted of 12th grade high school/vocational/MA students from several schools from Majalengka Regency and Cirebon Regency who had needs in developing visual content for 3 days. The results of the activity showed an increase in the knowledge and skills of participants in creating designs independently, as well as a growing awareness of the importance of creativity in supporting personal activities and in daily life. This activity also proves that graphic design training can be a means of empowering the community in facing challenges in the digital era. It is hoped that similar activities can be carried out on a sustainable basis so that the impact is wider and more evenly distributed from various circles, not only for students.

Abstract

In today’s rapidly evolving digital era, the ability to integrate technical multimedia skills with appropriate business strategies has become essential for enhancing the competitiveness of university graduates. However, challenges related to scheduling adjustments and internal coordination often hinder the effective implementation of educational activities among students.The “Creative Business” seminar was designed to provide in-depth insights into professional portfolio development, personal branding, and content monetization strategies for Multimedia students. This community engagement initiative was conducted through an educational seminar format, featuring both industry practitioners and academics as keynote speakers. The materials presented covered creative industry workflows, client management, and target market identification.The program successfully contributed to expanding participants’ knowledge of digital technology trends while also improving event management skills among the organizing committee. Despite encountering several technical issues, such as a schedule shift from 08:00 to 09:00 WIB and a change in the second speaker, participants responded positively to the clarity and relevance of the delivered content.Overall, the seminar proved effective in broadening students’ strategic perspectives. Nevertheless, incorporating more hands-on practice sessions and improving time management would further enhance the effectiveness of similar activities in the future.
