Week 34: 5/17 - 5/21
Monday - May 17th
Final Exam:
For your final exam you will be able to demonstrate the skills and talents that you have in the Adobe CC Software of your choice. You may choose to create a project using Photoshop, Illustrator, InDesign, or Animate. You may customize your project, but it must meet the requirements of the rubric that is specific to the software application that you chose. Consider this your capstone project for the year – you have the opportunity to demonstrate your proficiency in the design program that you like best!
Things to think about:
1. You may use more than one software to create your final exam project, but you must choose only 1 program to be graded on. For example: you may use Illustrator to create a character to use in your Animate animation, but you would be graded on the Animate Rubric for your animation, not your character from Illustrator. You will have the rest of your time in this class on this final exam project – think about that when you are choosing what your final project will be.
2. Plagiarism…don’t do it! Your project must be original work. DO NOT COPY AND PASTE. If you choose to use someone else’s work you will receive a 0 for the final exam.
3. When you choose your project, remember this is your final exam. You need to understand this software because you cannot ask for help from your peers or myself.
4. Your project is due at the end of class on your final day in class. No matter where you are at on your project, you must submit it at the end of your final design class period.
5. READ YOUR RUBRICS!!! Each rubric is specific to the Adobe Software application program that you choose. Make sure you read through the excellent column in order to understand everything that you will be graded on. Your rubrics can be found below.
6. Print the rubric for the program that you have chosen to use for your final exam. You will submit this rubric at the end of the exam time.
7. If you choose to use Animate: Submit your final product via email and submit your rubric to me with your name on it.
If you choose to use InDesign, Photoshop, or Illustrator: Print and submit your rubric and your final products in color, in person. Be sure to include your name on your final product and rubric. You will also need to submit your files via email as well. (I repeat: submit your file by e-mail AND print it and turn it in!)
Happy Designing and Good Luck!

Monday - January 25th: Today we start our first contest, the Doodle 4 Google contest. See the information and details below!
See the link to the contest below. We will review this in class, but you are responsible to review the contest requirements. We will be submitting them online.
This year’s Doodle 4 Google theme is:
“I AM STRONG BECAUSE...”
Strength isn’t only about how fast you can run or how many pushups you can do – it’s also about the strength inside of you.
How do you rise above troubles and keep moving forward in tough times? When you make mistakes or get scared, what helps you clear the clouds above your head? When people around you are feeling down, how do you use your inner strength to lift them up?
Our theme this year invites you to tell us what makes you uniquely strong.

Week 9: 11/2 - 11/6
Personal Brand Logo Project
Tuesday - November 3rd: DUE - ?
We are going to embark on our first major project in Illustrator - Creating your own, personal brand logo. This project will involve research, design, and instruction. The entire project is worth 150 points and will NOT be completed in 1 day. You will be graded on the practice activity, content of your research paper, the sketches and creation of your logo, the written step by step guidelines that you create to teach someone else how to duplicate your logo, and the recreation of your logo from your peer that used your guidelines. You will need to be thorough and specific throughout the entire process in order to be successful on this assignment. I want excellence rather than speed on this project so take your time and show me what you can do! Good luck - I know that we are going to see and learn some amazing things through this project!
:) Some things that you should keep in mind as we begin:
1. This logo should represent who you are as a person
2. Looking at the completed logo we should have a better understanding of what is important to you.
3. This must be an original design!
4. The plan is to put these on T-shirts.

Step 1: Practice
1. Watch the video on your own, taking notes as you go. (use headphones)
Have your illustrator open, stop the video as needed.
2. Create the logo that the video teaches you. There are many different steps that you will need to complete in order to recreate the logo from the video.
3. Save as a JPG. Print and submit as part of your project packet.
***I'm including a picture of the final logo that you are creating so that you have some idea of what direction you are heading with this assignment. Some of this is review, but you will learn some valuable techniques in creating a logo.

Step 2: Research
Using MLA Format...YES MLA format
You will complete a minimum 2 page research paper regarding copyright infringement. You will answer a series of questions in paper format. This means real paragraphs. A numbered paper with typed out questions and responses will NOT be accepted. You will need to answer the questions in paragraph format as if writing a research paper. The questions are designed to prompt you regarding the objective of the paper. The following question should get you started, but please don't limit yourself to answering just these questions:

- Define copyright infringement to logo designs
- What is not able to be copyrighted in design?
- What does the circled C do for you and do you need to include it on your logo/work?
- What do you need to prove if you want to sue a copycat?
- Whys is logo ownership important?
- Who owns logo design? The client or the designer?
Step 3: Brainstorming
You will sketch ideas for your logo - this should be a hand sketched project, no technology should be used. It may be in pencil, pen or color, but it must be your original sketch. We are going to be using the thumbnail strategy discussed in the video to the right. 16 thumnail sketeches will be required and you will need to follow the 5 steps discussed in the video when creating your thumbnail sketches. |
|
Step 4: Creation, Explaination & Recreation
You will design your logo in Illustrator. You will be required to keep a step by step documented record of your logo process. At the end of the project you will give your step by step instructions to a peer and they will have to recreate your logo using only your written instructions. Visual aids will not be allowed. You will submit the logo that your peer created following your step-by-step instructions with the rest of your assignment.
