abstract compositions


Cd album homework

For next time, please bring versions of small storyboards / sketches and final storyboard to the size. Look at the CD kind you are interested in making, and make a small moke-up out of regular white paper. If you are dealing with the jewel case, you can take the existing case and fit your work into it.

The regular size of the jewel case booklet is 4.75"x4.75".

Abby: carry on with your work on Ireland booklet. Print out a few spreads with different versions of type. Finalize the storyboard. (please don't forget your image poster).

Marcel: for your cover designs, bring your big graffiti type to shoot in class.

Rafael: haven't seen you last time. Please bring all of your pieces to work on. Make a small mock up for the packaging.

Laura: please finish your concept sketches to start the storyboard. You will work on the packaging in class.

Alana: organize all of your sketches. Bring the final storyboard (real size!) to the class. Also, please don't forget your image poster.

For everyone: next class I am going to have a camera and a tripod to show you a few way to photograph your art.
