Presentation / deck design NEXT week

NEXT week. Please be on time to class.

Last participation activity of the semester (be here for all presentations)

TODAY: LAST EDITS

Editing jacket, if necessary

At this point you should have all your assets ready with the exception of the jacket which was due last week and I am returning comments/grade today. If corrections are necessary, work on that so that your presentation includes those.

Edit other components too if needed (inside pages, cover and spine for hardcover)

Editing presentation:

The look of your presentation is up to you. HOWEVER, this is a type class. We covered many aspects of what advanced typography is. The presentation will be graded not only on including the corrected components, but its aesthetic and typographical compositions. Legibility is crucial.

Presentations need to be edited.

Editing text

HERE is the text that must be included.

Note minor edit:

For the PROCESS text, please change to
Experimentation is an essential component of the creative process.

You can do light edits to fit your design. For example:
Change numbers (1.2.3) to bullets or decorations or none.
Change slashes (/) to bullets (•) or other
Minor edits: remove or change a word here and there if it betters fits your design, and as long as it doesn’t change the meaning of what we are doing.

Quick Checklist

  • Using guides and margins (are you too close to the edges?!)
  • Are typographical items and visual placed consistently throughout pages.
  • Typographical hierarchy (same level or importance for similar items)
  • Type composition the same throughout pages (typefaces, alignment, etc)
  • Kerning for headings
  • This is your responsibility. Pay attention to detail.
