Week 35: 5/16 - 5/20
Monday - May 16th
Final Project:
For your final project 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 ZERO for the final project.
3. When you choose your project, remember this is your final project. 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 a rubric and submit it with your name on it. Email me all of your files from your project.
Happy Designing and Good Luck!

First finish the 10 things beginners want to know in Adobe Photoshop, before moving on.
1. Create a new Google Doc titled 10 things about InDesign CC.
2. Begin watching the video and FOLLOW ALONG (you will need headphones - let me know if you don't have any). You will open InDesign CC and do the skills that he shows you in the video.
3. In the document you created, you should list the 10 things that Terry discusses and describe them in detail. You should have a minimum of 3 sentences for each item on the list.
4. Did I mention you should follow along with the video? As in, do what Terry is doing in the video? You will have to stop the video, practice, maybe rewind, and LEARN the skill that he is demonstrating. FOLLOW ALONG means PRACTICE AS YOU GO!!! I met this man at a conference a few summers ago and he is the best at teaching Adobe - he knows what he's talking about and he makes it really easy to follow and understand so take advantage of what he has to say!
5. When you have completed the video tutorial and the document, print the document and submit. Remember to include your name, class hour and the name of the software at the top of the document.

Tuesday - September 7th:
Step 1: I want to know who you are as a designer and how you are different from everyone else? Write a Designer's Statement. It should be 1 long paragraph to 1 page long. Read the document below for more guidance. Create your designer statement in a Google document and share it with me.
Step 2: Search the web for free graphic design software and create your own "avatar/bitmoji" version of yourself as a graphic designer. Use the image to the right as a reference. I want to see your design skills. This should represent you how you view yourself, as a designer. I hope to learn a lot about you through this process. Have fun! Step 3: In the same Google document, describe the software you chose to use. What did you like about it? Was it easy to use? Would you recommend it to the class?
