Remaining three weeks of the semester:
1.) Letterpress printed cards: minimum of 10, sized to fit into a #6 envelope [4.25" x 6.5"] Bring printed letterpress cards to class on Thursday, November 15. DO NOT fold them yet!!!! I will show you how to score and fold them properly during class next week and get them ready to send out. Do NOT use words [i.e: no "happy birthday" etc....]. Abstract designs only. After you have finished printing, you MUST return all type to the proper drawers, all furniture put away in the proper compartments of the furniture cabinets, and all ink and brayers cleaned up. If I get any reports from Debrah or Stephanie that the print shop is suffering from our use, we will all go over as a class and clean it, not during class time.
2.) magazine cover + three, 3-page spreads:
I have graded your first re-design and will return them to you on Tuesday with copious notes written on them. You have designed one 3-page spread already, now you are to add two more 3-page spreads to it. These must be based on solid research and useable images you have located that are 300 dpi. Begin your research for the next two articles right away. As you know by now, this can take a large amount of time, so don't wait. Any projects turned in with any images that are bitmapped and not proper dpi will receive an automatic F, no questions, no excuses. Any and all spelling errors will also count significantly against your grade.
3.) Accordian fold book: Evolution of an Everyday Object:
These will be graded with notes and returned to you next Tuesday as well. You will complete the book, printed and bound before the end of the semester. Many of you wandered far away from the original intent of "Evolution of an Everyday Object." Remind yourself this is the purpose of the book and think through your re-designs accordingly. Printed, bound and due November 29. Any projects turned in with any images that are bitmapped and not proper dpi will receive an automatic F, no questions, no excuses. Any and all spelling errors will also count significantly against your grade.
4.) First assignment of the semester: design something 65 feet long and soft. To be presented on exam day December 4.
5.) Final Exam. On Tuesday, December 4. We will review in class between now and then.
