A Refresher in Everything 

Objective:  The objective of this assignment is to welcome back all of the skills, tools and terms learned in Graphic I.  In order to do well throughout Graphic II, it is imperative that you recall all of the assignments you completed in Graphic I.  These assignments taught you how to begin working in the Adobe Creative Suite, and the skills you picked up are going to be the ones needed throughout this course.  Don’t panic!  We’re going to take this in steps.  However, you will not move onto the next step until you have finished the one before it. 

This project, in its entirety, will have several parts that you will be responsible for:

  • a complete sketch of your project that includes all of the required phases
  • a title for your book
  • cover illustration to be completed in Adobe Illustrator
  • a cover completed in Adobe Photoshop that blends texture and color (that will include your illustration)
  • the first chapter (not written, you’ll see what I mean when you get to this part), with title
  • back cover art that flows from the front cover to be completed in Adobe Photoshop
  • synopsis of what the book is about to be included on the back cover
  • your book will be put together in Adobe Indesign, and exported as a PDF
