Coping with two assignments at the same time is now proving a little easier as the web plan design begins to fall into place thanks to the latest tutorials, while the mini-assignment design briefs are a challenging diversion to the typographic recognition tests which have tested our understanding and memory.
The recent results received from our first assignment referrals brought relief as it was confirmed I had gained a pass and can now move onto the ‘Sounds Like A Plan’ submission with greater confidence. Both this, and further tests on typography design and usage will be due once we return in the New Year and I hope to use the time up to the festive season to ensure the project is available to be proofed.
After my earlier presentation to the group as a whole I found myself once more in front of class with seminar colleagues as we made a mini-presentation based on ‘Contrast’ which is one of the four elements of PARC - Proximity, Alignment, Repetition and Contrast – that aid good design.
Unfortunately a software glitch meant part of my presentation was unable to be viewed [see image above] which was frustrating as it highlighted the contrast in negative space to good use.
With just one week before our break we are now looking forward to the impromptu Christmas lunch which all students - and tutor – are participating in.
