Day 30 - TUESDAY 10.23.2012

Remember, that if you need help, there are many resources.  Check the HELP MENU, try GOOGLE, and you can FACETIME me @ tannynanda@gmail.com.  I will be monitoring you throughout the school day.  You are expected to stay on task and make progress thanks to the wonders of TECHNOLOGY.

Graphics 1 - Finish work on the ROCKET tutorial.  If you have finished, you may work on the TYPE ON A PATH project.  NO SIMPLE SHAPES for TYPE ON A PATH.  Make sure to post your work as you finish. 

Graphics 2 - Today is the cutoff.  If you have yet to hear anything from your organization, it is time to MOVE ON.  Choose a new client and send the INITIAL EMAIL.  If you have received confirmation, start by recreating the company's logo in ILLUSTRATOR.  You may only use 4 colors even if they have more.  Use the SHAPE and PEN TOOL to create precise logos.  No company wants their logo to look wobbly and unprofessional.  PAPER FORMAT.

Multimedia 1 - DO OVER FROM YESTERDAY.  You may have one more class period to finish your PHOTOGRAPHY PORTFOLIO.  EXPORT it and put it in my DROPBOX.  Use Photoshop to correct your photos.  Load your photos onto the computer via memory card, cable, or email.  Choose 5 to use for the 5 CORRECTIONS :  INVERT, THRESHOLD, ISOLATE, B&W, BEST CORRECTION, DYNAMIC.

If you are finished, you may begin researching your next NEWSCAST.  Remember to use the proper FORMAT.  Move down one on the list based on the type of story you did last time.  Here is the Hierarchy:  

WORLD NEWS > LOCAL NEWS > MPHS NEWS > SPORTS >
POP CULTURE > ODDITIES.
