This week the 8th grade artists continued with their study of graphic design and careers in the field of graphic design. Students studied the principles of graphic design and explored career options in the field.
Also, students continued to work on their graduation cover designs for the Class of 2010.
Students explored themes of learning,the future,the journey,success,and achievement for their grad cover designs. Many students used both graphic symbols and pictorial symbols to express their concept or visual hook. In addition, students worked on page layout and composition as they inserted type and lines of copy for their finished work of art.
