Assignment

Your assignment for next week's review is two-fold:

  1. For the final step in our self-promotion print adventure you are all tasked with creating ONE NEW AMAZING piece of self-promotion that works seamlessly with the design system you have been working on. This week's assignment can be anything you want as long as it helps you to generate work, interest, followers, and so on. Possible ideas could be a folding poster, a small book (story or portfolio), coffee mug, enamel pins or buttons, t-shirts, whatever...
  2. Based upon our discussion this week: Make any and all additional refinements to your postcard & business card designs. I have given several of you specific feedback and I expect to see those thoughts considered in your explorations.

We will have a group video crit next week.

Presentation:

  • You will be presenting your work digitally (via the screen) next week! This will require preparation on your part:
    • You will need to mock up your 3rd self-promotion and present it as a file/image whatever.
    • You will need to have digital versions of your postcard & business card. These can be files or photos, or whatever you can share digitally and speak to.
    • The cameras in our devices are poor quality and do not work well close up, consider taking photos of everything that is not already digital.
    • Presenting via video is a good skill to develop. You can share loose files or make a keynote (slide deck), I leave this up to you.


Delivery:
