Final Assignment!


Hey everyone!

Class was canceled for this week and Ms Lisa gave us our final assignement
 Here was what she posted up on our FID group page :)

A SET OF 3 GREETING CARDS! (YEAY!)

what you need to do is, research and pick a theme that will run consistently though your set of 3 cards. you may choose any occasion to celebrate, but as always i urge you to think beyond the norm!

you must convincingly utilize ALL elements and principles of design that i have been drumming into you throughout the entire semester, so your compositions must be balanced / present the understanding of the rule of thirds, they should be proportionate, your colors must make sense, your choice of typography (digital or handwritten) must compliment your layout etc.

you may choose to use any material and method you wish to experiment with i.e collage, pop-up, paper cutting, stamping, illustration etc on card, fabric, wood, aluminium etc. i would suggest keeping the cards at a manageable size i.e A5 or so. you may opt to custom make your own envelopes as well so that they match each card perfectly, or you may also opt to make matching envelope liners as well / instead.

you may message me or preferably start a conversation thread here with any queries. but knowing you lot, you'll all manage very, very well! your dateline is 21st august 2013 at 11am. we'll meet up in the studio as usual for your last class

i think that pretty much covers it...this is a super fun assignment, and i dont want to confine or restrict your creativity. if in doubt, KEEP IT SIMPLE! so do have as much fun making the cards as you can! have a good study break!
