Happy Presidents Day!
Last week our focus was on letterforms, personality of type and type design.
You were also introduced to SL and several of you joined us on the SBCC island to experience the SL world, learn how to change your clothes, play tic tac toe and go for a ride on the local cruise boat AND we all TP'd to a Free store to shop for new digs. A fun time had by all!

This week you will continue to investigate type personalities, read about typefaces that work well together and sharpen your eye to recognize good type design and choose fonts that "speak" the same language as the image. 
Type design can be very subjective BUT it is important to remember there are design principles you need to follow as you develop your designs and look for as you critique design layouts.

There are four (4) assignments this week.
1. An interview with Paula Sher, a very creative type designer. You will be listening to the podcast and then answering the questions listed.

2. Type Design:Personality Match
Your assignment will be to match the best font with the image.

3. Second Life Scavenger hunt. You will travel in SL and photograph several objects/sites in SL. These images will be displayed on our SL "sandbox".
PLEASE label your images as directed in the assignment.

4. Your first quiz will be available for you beginning today. 
The quiz will be timed so make sure you watch the "clock" at the top of the quiz and you will only be able to take it one time.

Have a great week!
