Lesson 8

Project

Project 02 Step 04
Monogram & Stationery: Stationery First Draft

What are we doing?

Create a first draft of 3 complete stationery systems.

Why are we doing it?

With most projects that you will work on, the client wants to see several options. Completing three different drafts encourages variety and provides options to choose from before proceeding to the finished stationery system.

How are we going to do it?

Use the same process to create your stationery systems that you used while exploring a professional system in the last exercise.

Completely design 3 different systems and place them on the workbook pages.

Once they are completed, choose the system that you think is the most successful and export that page as a jpeg for your blog post.

Process Blog Post

After you have completed all of the steps listed above for this lesson, you are ready to complete your process blog post. Blogposts should be structured like a presentation with a beginning, middle and end. Each step will involve it's own process and its own unique challenges and successes. Introduce the assignment, talk about what worked for you and what didn't, explain which of your solutions are working using design principles to back it up. If you have specific questions about how to move forward, you can ask them in the blogpost.

Please include the following in your blog post:

Once the Process Blog Post is complete, submit a link to the post in I-Learn. To submit the link in I-Learn, click P2S4 link in the left navigation and then click on the Open button at the bottom of the I-Learn window.

After you have submitted your assignment in I-Learn, you will need to provide feedback to your team members in WordPress. Your feedback to team members will be on the following areas:

You should list the item, your rating, and any comments you had to help your team member improve. Your feedback on process blog posts will not be used as part of their grade but will help you to teach one another to improve their work.
