Typography Portrait - Media Design 3 PLB Project

Students will create a complex typographic portrait in Adobe Illustrator that utilizes different elements of typography and portrays a person through the chosen words designed in the portrait. In this project students will employ the skills of a Multimedia Artist. Multimedia Artists create special effects, animation, or other visual images using film, video, computers, or other electronic tools and media for use in products or creations, such as computer games, movies, music videos, and commercials. In this project students will specifically design a complex graphic, using independent judgment, creativity, and computer equipment. Approximately 4 weeks
