Photojournalism Assignment May 3, 2005
Digital photography changes daily, and it is important to stay on top of new techniques and technology to take the best photos possible. That is why I assigned you to read articles from Digital Photography Magazine.
I just checked Skyward and none of you have grades for the assignment. The Skyward assignment online should have told you to navigate to http://www.dpmag.com/, read the articles entitled "Ultimate Photo Printers," "10 Top Portrait Tips," "D-SLR Facts" and "The ISO Advantage." After reading these, you should be able to answer the questions on the assignment. You can keep both pages open (assignment and website) if you want.
Do this assignment on Tuesday (May 4) and check this blog on May 5 for the next assignment. The substitute teacher has your Skyward Login if you have forgotten it. If there are any issue accessing the assignment, have the substitute teacher call me.

Desktop Publishing - May 3-6
During the week of May 3-6, you will accomplish four tasks. You may turn the first three in as soon as they are complete so that you have more time to work on the fourth one.
During this time of year banquets take up a lot of our time. And these banquets require invitations, RSVP cards, and programs. You have the skills, using Photoshop, Illustrator and InDesign, to make beautiful and easily read documents. Using the information in labyb_hw/desktop publishing/banquet, you will create an invitation and RSVP card and then, using the same graphics and font, you will create the program for the banquet. Remember what you have learned about left and right aligning tabs, leaders, and font sizes when creating these documents.
DUE DATES:
Invitation and RSVP due May 4
Program due May 5
Last, you have been given the opportunity to design a t-shirt and have it printed by The Screen Stop. Using the specifications below, create a front to a t-shirt. Each design will be submitted and The Screen Stop will choose the best five. If your design is chosen, you will receive a t-shirt with your design.
Specifications:
Front Only
Maximum Size: 10.5" X 15"
No more than four colors (use swatches to make sure you only use four colors)
Must be created in Adobe Illustrator

Have a safe weekend! See you Monday!
