Earlier in the the semester we did a tour of Kensington Market. We had to create a small book or brochure from the pictures.
During this assignment I learned one of the basic rules of printing: For the love of all that is sweet and fuzzy, don't bleed all over the prints!
Silly paper cuts. =/

My boots are violently green and totally awesome.
On Tuesday there was an in-class assignment to re-size banners celebrating the 4 hour season premier of 24. History will no doubt look back on the fact that 24 is not actually returning as, at the very least, a minor miracle.
Sadly I was not in class as the migraine fairy has decided to visit me frequently this semester. Absence not being an excuse for not doing, here's Jack:
One of our major projects is to take two existing companies or organizations and create mock-ups of a new design for them.
One of the companies I chose is Newcap Radio, a broadcasting company.Full size image of the content page.
The other is Dystar LP, the North American member of Dystar Global - provider of products and services for the textile and leather industry.Full size image of the content page.
As an exercise in story-boarding we were assigned to create story boards for a web banner for a BlackBerry product. I decided to use the BlackBerry Style, a new addition to the BlackBerry family.
The banner had to follow BlackBerry's branding guidelines and contain some type of incentive to encourage a person to click on it.
