Project #2 is Ready for Your Viewing Pleasure!

For our second project of the semester, students were asked to develop an advertisement for placement in a magazine. We discussed the basics of a grid and how to design an ad using lines and bounding boxes as guides. The main idea behind grid-based designs is to keep your text and imagery balanced and organized. Professional designers begin every project by setting up a grid, and our students are becoming quite the professionals themselves! We used Adobe InDesign to create the project and even used Photoshop to edit some of the artwork. Take a look at our work below!

Keep checking back with us! Our third project is nearing completion. Students created a "How-To" video using photographs they took themselves. We used Windows MovieMaker to create a story line with transitions, video effects, and music!
