Gestalt Type Part II

Today we will be having our first online critique. We will be meeting virtually today rather than in person. You are welcome to use the computers in the studio (if you can find ones that work, last count we were down to 5).  Taking this into consideration you will have until the end of the day to post your work.

By now you should have lots of ideas sketched out. Pick your best 3, scan, or take a picture with your phone, iPad, or camera and post it to your blog.

There are 2 parts to this assignment.

  1. Post your best 3 pieces on your blog. They should be up by tonight, (at least before tomorrow morning 6ish)
  2. Critiquing: This is a simple one, just a simple vote. Once everyone has posted there work you will need to to over to the student blog section to visit there blogs. Just rate 1st, 2nd, and 3rd as to which you feel best communicates the characters. Whichever you feel ranks first write the principle(s). that are used. This part should be done before class on Thursday. 
UPDATE: Seems I left out one part of the instructions. You are to rate the blogs as comments on the post. Click on 'No comments' of 'comments' and type in your comments. (Thanks, Felicia!)


We will begin the last part of the assignment Thursday.

Today's Class

Ok guys. We are not exactly canceling class but there is really no reason for you to come in today. This is the situation. Todays project was 100% Illustrator work. Between both rooms we only have 4 computers that will allow you to log in. 

I will revise our project so that we can do it by hand. I will email you when it is posted later today.
