2. Start working on a comp (in our case - the final step of the project)

It includes actual typography, chosen color palettes, imagery (if needed), layout and accurate arrangements of the parts.

TO DO


Typography Poster project

1. Important note:
This poster project is already a professional one.
Working on this project and other professional work, you have to learn how to create professionally.
Of course, you have to learn design principles, but not less important - you have to train your eye, doing research of high quality designs and analyze why they are good and how they are created.
Then, you could apply these discoveries and knowledge to your work

2. Continue working on the comps.
Try to do as much as possible, so you can finish and print it Wednesday for the presentation on the next Monday, 11/2.
