Homework

  • Revise as needed your 2 sketches (paper and pencil) to explore different possibilities for your final poster layout.  Don’t assume first ideas and solutions are the best. Take chances, you can always  tighten things up later.  You may add type at this stage. Think about using type to help visually communicate your concept. Experiment with a variety of approaches. Experiment with type  and composition perhaps focus on the expression through the letterforms themselves, as well as through  their arrangement on the page.
