Working Outside of Class

• Students are reminded that all of the computers in the Library lobby (not Lab C & D) are installed with Adobe CS5 which is the software we use in class.  Students would easily be able to work outside of class time by going to the library and logging on.
• Students are also welcome to come to room #174 during advisory or club time to work on class projects, provided they have a planner signed in advance.

Class Handouts & References

Below you will find links to relevant handouts for the class.

• Class Overview: This is the handout we went over the first day of class
• Business Cards: This is the slide show of examples for reference and inspiration.

Photo Assignments

Several of the projects over the course of the semester will require students to provide their own digital photographs.  If students do not have their own digital camera, there are 4 available to be checked out. Below is a list of the projects and a brief explanation of the images necessary.  Examples would be posted in the near future.

• Quote Poster (Adobe Illustrator): Provide photo to help illustrate a selected quote
• Magazine Cover (Adobe Photoshop): Provide photo for magazine cover based on the information included on the assigned magazine.
• CD Cover (Adobe Photoshop): Provide either scanned image or digital photo to help redesign an assigned CD cover.
• T-Shirt Design (Adobe Photoshop): Provide two images for a design that will be printed onto transfer paper and ironed on to real t-shirts.
