Here is the plan for today:

1. comment on a classmate’s blog
2. take quiz
3. Typography activity (see previous post)
4. Poster activity (see below for materials)

We will practice using Robin Williams design principles by redesigning a poster that I found in the Eddy Building. You will do this activity in groups and use whatever software program the group is most comfortable with—Word, Illustrator, Photoshop, Publisher, etc. Here are the materials you will need.

Here is the plan for today’s class:

1. Manifesto peer response: I will place you into groups of three and you will follow the instructions on the peer response sheet to provide feedback to your group members.
2. Typography activity: We will listen to “The Fear” by Lilly Allen and then with your group members, you will design the lyrics to reflect the meaning of the song. Your design may only use type, color, and basic page layout—no images including fonts that are icons rather than letter and numbers.
