1. Go to the post with advanced examples. Click on the link. Your assignment should be more like this. No MS Word essays needed! PLEASE.
2. In MS Word, answer the following questions.
What do you see? In the Village Voice Summer Fest? Or the Summer Book Preview? Or “Love Your Heart?” What about the color? Shape? Texture? How can you use your font to answer the questions listed here at the bottom of the post.
How old? Where was it created? Why? Who? Where was it popular? Do we use it for billboards? Text messages? Movie titles? Newspapers? Magazines?
3. Open your MS Word Document. Save it; title it; store it in the correct place. If you are at a computer without Word, open a Blog post and work on the information. You will still create a blog post.
4. Use Word Art, or other MS Word functions. Themes, Colors. Identify someone in your group who is a resource. You may ask them questions.
Short Break to walk around class and stretch.
