Ok, if you have been absent and are behind on your assignments, you will need to come in and work extra on those assignments.
We are now going to work on the EXTREME CHALLENGE project until it is finished.
You will recieve a grade based on your participation. Don't screw up your grade by not participating (which means you have to attend). This is a big project.

Project - Creating the Extreme Challenge Logo
- Illustrator Class - Tiff, Megan, James
- Typography Class - Martin, Rusty, Rocky, Terri
Tiff and Martin are leaders of this project. They will need to make sure their is communication between the two classes AND that the project is completed. They will also be responsible for logging their work in the Word document mentioned below.
The files are located on the Student Drive in Holder Illustrator Class/Extreme Challenge/Logo
You also need to update the Word document that shows who worked on what... and what day. This and my observations is how you will receive your participation grade.

Exploring Illustrator
Before we start in on Chapter 1 of the text, I would like for you to explore the following sites for examples of graphics created in Illustrator (and Photoshop).
Review the following websites for examples of work using Photoshop and Illustrator.
E-mail me a summary of your findings.

Mandala (Sanskrit maṇḍala "circle", "completion")[1] is a term used to refer to various objects. It is of Hindu origin, but is also used in other Indian religions, such as Buddhism. In the Tibetan branch of Vajrayana Buddhism, they have been developed into sandpainting. In practice, mandala has become a generic term for any plan, chart or geometric pattern that represents the cosmos metaphysically or symbolically, a microcosm of the Universe from the human perspective. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mandala
