Design a wedding invite, album cover or typographic pattern! the choice is yours...

I want you to get the most out of the class as possible so for that reason I've given you a choice of projects to choose from... feel free to do more than 1.

Project 1 - Design a wedding invite for a friend

Maybe you have a friend who is getting married and although they might have already got invites design it would be fun to have them in mind when designing an invitation. Think about their style of wedding, their personalities - all the things we talk about in class.

Alternatively you can download my brief below for a fictional couple.

Project 2 - Design an album cover for your favorite band / artist

Simple right?! I want you to take on board everything we talk about in the class to design your favorite artist an album cover, thinking about their style of music, their personalities, their fan base... Think about how they would brief you if you were to be their album cover designer?

What other elements might be used also - photography or illustration... and how will the typography fit in.

Project 3 - Design a typographic surface pattern

I've attached a made up brief below if you need some focus on this one! I know so many surface pattern designers who are a little worried about using type within their designs. Hopefully this course will make you feel a lot more confident in your choices.

Project steps:

Step 1 - upload 3 images of typography you see around you and discuss the typefaces chosen

Step 2 - If designing a wedding invitation or album cover think about how you could design a logo that could work on your design

Step 3 - Start collating your ideas for which typefaces you would like to use on your designs and share your thoughts with us all

Step 4 - Upload your final designs and ask for feedback
