Work on your tracing until 8:10.
Next:
You will need your sketches:
- Look through your sketches and find a design that meets the following criteria:
- clear message about the type of business-Graphic Design for this assignment (required for full credit).
- eye catching
- memorable
- You will have 20 minutes on the Master Path (Master Path-defined as a black on white design used by graphic designers to create collection of designs based on the same logo) .
- Open an Illustrator document set to 8.5" x 11"
- Select a font close to the sketch you have chosen.
- Set the type size to 200 pt
- Type out your letters (don't not drag out a text box. Simply click and type) and apply create outlines once the spelling is double checked. A tracing is another option using a scan and the pen tool.
- Move the anchor points to reshape the letters to fit your design.
- Move the letters to the position that you want using the direct selection arrow (the white one)
- Gallery Walk Activity
- Working with your row of 3 to 4 rowmates (the 5 students closest to the walls will work together), leave out a piece of paper to give advice to each rowmate on the following topics:
- Clarity of the business message (does it tell you they are a graphic designers?)
- Is the arrangement dynamic? (Explain why or why not. If not, what do you recommend?)
- Is it a black on white typographic logo? (explain the changes needed to improve the design)
- Make adjustments based on the feedback from the Gallery Walk and be sure to save your work into your H drive.
The remaining time can be spent on the tracing and the tracing game from yesterday.
