Monday

All the available POS sketches are graded.  I know that many of you skipped the sketches.  Regardless, you must be creating an Illustrator version of one of the starred designs.  Consider this the feedback from your client.  The client will expect you to design based on the choices that they indicated that they were interested in seeing.  This design will be due on Friday of this week.

We will be talking about the about the State Cross Country Logo next.  Again, you have a real client. Copyright laws must be observed as these designs will be sold to the public!  There are 3 cash prizes for this project of $50, $25 and $15 for 1st, 2nd and 3rd place designs.

Wednesday

We are having a critique today.

Please copy your typographic/icon logo into the temporary type/icon logo folder in the N drive.  This is great chance to see your work from a different perspective.  We will be looking at readability, arrangement and color impact.  You will get a grade for this, so make sure your work is in the folder. Don't panic! It does not need to be finished!

Take notes on the recommendations.  They can be worked on Thursday, when I am on The Hartman Creek field trip.

We will be wrapping this assignment up soon.  The next assignment is 10 sketches for the Program of Studies that Mrs. Hoch introduced yesterday.  They will be due next week.

I am caught up on grades, so I will be trouble shooting the couple of tutorial questions emailed to me, tonight.

One last thing...is anyone familiar with iCloud5?  Someone looking for help with it.  Let me know if you can help out.

Friday

Today is a great day to catch up!

Things to consider working on:
-Illustrator version of your best icon/typography design from this week.  Find tutorials that will help you create the most awesome version of this logo possible.
-Finish up missing assignments.  Email me the Illustrator file (.ai) so I can grade it at home this weekend.
-Work on a personal project
-Check out the contest tab and see if anything appeals to you.

Please stay off youtube unless it is a tutorial for your logo.

Thank you for your hard work!

Tuesday

One more day...
Finish up the sketches and turn them in so I can grade them.

If you feel strongly about a couple of them, start working in Illustrator.

I saw a couple of links were sent to me.  I will look at them tomorrow.  My brain is not on tonight.

Monday

We are starting our final logo design project.

This videos will help get you started.

I shared your assignment with you as a Google Doc.
