Homework, Notes, 9/11/08

hi all

first, i hope you're all doing well today and maybe sending good thoughts to those who have a hard time reliving this date.

i asked for a few things for next class:

1. please bring in 3 posters for each side of your political issue, for a total of 6 posters. they should each be 10"x16", horizontal or vertical, in B&W. you may do variations on 1 concept or all different concepts/visuals. as i said in class, if it going to be all type make it look good. 1 suggestion is to find a book of posters in the parsons library for inspiration- there are some amazing ones.

2. read the introduction and first part of chapter 1 of 'designing with type'- pp. 1-16. there will be a quiz, as this is important stuff.

another suggestion to those who were having difficulty with poster concepts: register with the blog and post your ideas (even visuals!). i at least will comment, and it's a like a free midweek critique.

hasta miercoles,
n
