Project Overview:

Creative work reaches deep into our intuitive and unconscious minds, into our hearts and feelings. Examine the ways in which your calling can be interpreted and represented in visual form, offering clarity, embedded meaning and understanding to the viewer. Work with a secondary level of information and embrace the concept of calendar/time to construct a poster calendar for the year 2017. Your poster should be beautiful, inspiring and is designed to keep you on track and centered after our time together is over!

Goal:

Work with a main level of information visualizing highly abstract ideas by exploring design elements, typography and diverse processes. Work with a secondary level of information of a calendar for 2017, (all 12 months) but keep the amount of space for the calendar to less than ¼ of the format.

Brief:

Go back, review and use the Compass Workshop exercises as your jumping off point for the project. Stay away from literal translation and use metaphors and story telling for your design. Let your imagination expand and don’t truncate your ideation process. Emphasis will be placed upon original concept development and the exploration of diverse processes, techniques and methods. You will be expected to experiment and explore, thereby expanding on your visualization skills.

Measurements/Colors/Type:

Poster final format: 22”x28” minimum final size. Use the provided poster thumbnail template for ideation. 

Any colors 4cp, any appropriate typography appropriate to the concept direction and personality expression. Final beautiful printout on high quality paper, neatly trimmed.
