Asymmetrical Typographic Design

I really wanted you to focus on design skills, but the truth is you’ve gotta have skills to create design.

This quest will challenge you with new digital skills while also pushing you to engage your creativity in design.

This is likely your first Epic Quest project of the semester.  This one will take some work and will show your ability to apply skills as you learn them.

 

 

Are you up for a challenge

 

 

Instructions
Using ONLY selected typographical elements (A, @, 5, ~, etc) you will create a design that demonstrates the design principle of Asymmetrical Balance.

Your finished typographic design will include all 11 requirements listed below. Each requirement must be clearly applied to your final design. Warning: Words, names, symbols, and logos are prohibited (not allowed).

Although an artist is “never finished” on a project, at some point we have to move on to the next quest. Follow these instructions carefully as you prepare your final document for submission.

 

 

HIGHLY RECOMMENDED: Ask Coulson to check out your work to see if he has any suggestions before you submit your final design.

 

Instruction on creating and posting your project on a Behance page are be coming soon.

 

  1. Ask the Coulson to print your piece AND hang it on the lines at front of room if he hasn’t yet.
