The university has cancelled classes for Tuesday, Jan. 28. Class will not meet but students should do the following:
- Take Reading Quiz #3 about Document Design chap. 1 before Jan. 28 at 11:59pm. It is an open-book quiz.
- Prepare two distinct book jacket drafts for the workshop on Thursday, Jan. 30. Both drafts should be for the same public domain book but each should correspond to a different aesthetic school. The drafts can be electronic or print; they just need to be shareable in class. Students should be able to discuss how each draft reflects the principles of its corresponding aesthetic school but shouldn't get too hung up on this; the point is to use the schools to expand rather than limit possibilities. The graphics tutorial video walks through the process of making a draft so students should be sure to watch it. Although the tutorial covers Adobe Photoshop students might consider using alternative image editors such as Pixlr Editor.
Feel free to contact the instructor with any questions. |
