Please click on link under Competition on the right side of this blog called "Art Is everywhere design poster". Once you are at the site, you must download brochure, rules, logo, tips on how to compress files, calendar etc. They are all underlined in red.
Before proceeding with creating your design please read all rules. If you feel like reading more than proceed to look at the rest of the documents. But you must read rules first.
You will have the entire day to complete your design, format it, write your copy, get your transcript, stuffit and send it to me. We will not revisit this project again. You must complete all phases of project today. Make sure to come in Wednesday with accompanying release form signed by your parents. This is part of your test and will be counted against you if you don't have it Wednesday morning.
THIS IS A TEST Your grade will be based on 1. What you design today, 2. Your understanding/comprehension of rules, 3.how proactive you are in getting all parts done correctly and following rules as listed. 4. Your understanding of compression and different formats 5. Your written accompanying statement. 6. turning everything in to me today. 7. having all elements ready to send to AI (including release form, on wednesday)
YOu should be able to access your highschool transcript through infinite campus and generate a pdf of it. THis file along with your design, statement in word, and release form will all go into one folder which you will then compress using Stuffit. Read the rules carefully. I would like for you to compress the folder today and send it to me without the release form (as you will need your parents to sign this first) but with everything else in it. It's part of your grade. If you don't know how to compress read the rules (there is a link in there to find out how). If you don't have stuffit on your computer, download it. It's free. Be proactive and solve the problem.
If for whatever reason you find it difficult to send me something, you must send me an email asap and explain why. Before you email me make sure you have exhausted all resources including your classmates. It will reflect in your grade if you can't figure it out. This is something you must know how to do as it will be asked of you a lot. It is part of being a problem solver and digitally literate.
ADVICE: the challenge is to get design done and all parts that go along with it on time today before leaving. As you are designing I would suggest you write the statement too as ideas and reasons for doing something come to you.
Do not wait until 1:30 to read the rules and try to get everything else done. You will not be able to and will fail.
More than half of your grade is based on following the rules and completing all parts before the bell rings.
This test is not just about your design.
You can use ideas from other projects you've created, however remember you can only use images and illustrations of your own and not taken off the internet or from another source.
You can design the poster in Photoshop or Illustrator or both. You can draw or paint everything and then scan it in. I don't care.
Have fun and again make sure to read everything. Having your headphones on listening to music will not help you with this project at all. You need to understand what you are reading and follow directions.
