Design An Invite to Gallery Opening for an Artist

Invitation Project Overview
Ok, here we go. The invitation project will go over the design process as well as focus on a completed project with consideration of the elements of design, Alignment, Contrast, Proximity, or Repetition.

Invitation should be able to be constructed on 8.5in x 11in paper, 150 resolution. You may use multiple papers, construction paper, and other materials to create it, but they should be smaller than one single sheet of paper.
Steps:

VERY IMPORTANT DETAILS ABOUT ASSIGNMENT
  • It’s near the end of the school year. Anything that is late will lose 50% of your grade for that part. It will first go in as missing and then you will have a revised grade with a maximum of 50% of total

  • This invitation must...


  • fold somewhere
  • have background images/textures that are not random, but appropriate (no plain  white background)
  • must have some NON-geometric element. See examples
  • must use alignment, as this will have a significant part of your grade
  • must be able to be printed on regular sized paper
  • Font must be no smaller than 10 point size (headlines/names can be fancy font, but the rest should be a plain readable font. Plain readable does not mean the most boring font ever created)

5/13     Research Invitation Handout             25 Points     
Figure out what needs to be on the invitation, Name(s), date, time, place, what’s happening, attire, RSVP & contact, etc. You will need to determine all appropriate information and complete the handout.


5/15    Sketches     20 Points                  
See sketch handouts. You will complete two different sketches. Often people tell me they have a great idea and want to stick with that. How do you know that first idea is the best one? Often artists will create lots and lots of designs before reaching an acceptable design that the client is happy with and the artist can create. You will create 2 different designs. 

5/17 Design and Mock-Up of best invitation         25 Points                          
You will be creating rough mock-up for the project. You will print designs out on the regular printer and assemble the cards as if they were the real thing. It must include elements and be presentable and explainable.

5/24    Final Invitation, printed and mocked up     100 Points
This will be printed in color and assembled for presentation. It should have a non-rectangle design that can be explained to the class.
