For December 7:
November 30, 2009 at 10:29 AM 1. Your book
Two copies of your book will be required. One will become part of the VCD design library, the other will be handed back with notes. Even if you encounter problems with delivery of your book or output issues, it is your responsibility to make sure that you have these two copies available at the start of class.
2. Promo piece
Consider how your book can be promoted and design something accordingly. In a most basic sense, an advertising postcard about the book would be adequate. But consider your book's topic and audience... perhaps a special package? An online viral campaign? A commercial or film? More complex ideas can be storyboarded and do not need to be completed. We are interested in the idea, professionally presented.
3. Process
Please include highlights of your research and design process for the semester. This does not have to be complicated, but should be a clean, organized view of your process and roughs and mockups. Again, it should be professional and organized.
4. Presentation
Be prepared to present your book in front of the class. Pretend that we have not yet heard of your book and you are presenting the idea for the first time. 3-5 minute presentation, plus feedback from the glass.
The critique will start at 9am and everyone must be present, books in hand. Books handed in after 9 will be docked marks, and not handing in a book by 5pm on December 7 may result in an F.
