Collateral
- Brochure
- 20 Flash Cards (30 Flash Cards for teams of 3)
- 11”x17" Poster

Process
Each team will collaborate on the 20 selected type terms or 30 depending on total team members. Through documented research, write a short definition of each of your selected terms. Using Pages or Word, write up your text. Next create simple typographic illustrations that visually highlight your assigned terms on a letterform example. As a team, strive to create cohesive and harmonious illustrations. Use the various tools in Illustrator such as transparency and/or Pathfinder in highlighting the terms.
Share your finished illustrations and text to finalize all 20 or 30 terms selected. Each team will need to create a rough marker layout concept of their poster, brochure and additional piece, if decided upon. Each team will work together in and out of class in InDesign, creating style sheets and design revisions for final production.
Final presentation, will be printed, trimmed, folded, and mounted accordingly. Teams will then present their finalized work to the class. Digital Jpegs will be uploaded to blackboard per final requirements.
