Part I: Bio Revisions POSTPONED UNTIL FURTHER NOTICE
Taking into account feedback from your peers and instructor, make any necessary revisions to your bio. Submit work in the form of a new post with “Assignment 3A” as the category.
Part II: Formatted Resume
Taking into account feedback from your peers and instructor, design your resume for the format of a single 8.5” x 11” page. Carefully consider how the structure and categorization of content, and typography can best serve your audience. The goal is to have a coherent and concise document that can be digested quickly and efficiently, but its also important to consider this as an opportunity to begin to formulate and implement a consistent visual identity system that will be expanded upon as the semester progresses. Work for this assignment should be submitted in PDF format on a new post marked with the category “Assignment 3B”. Files must be named with the following convention:
Firstname_Lastname_Resume.PDF
Part III: Business Card
A business card is a useful item to have as you expand your network of professional contacts. In addition to serving as a memory aid to the person who receives your card, it’s also another opportunity to affect (positively or negatively) the perceptions of your new contact through your visual identity.
Design a business card for your personal use. Create 3 iterations on a single theme that offer some variation on some of the following:
- content (mailing address, email, land line, mobile phone, etc, etc…)
- size
- orientation
- color
- stock (paper, etc)
- printing method
- cost
- 1 sided or 2 sided
- font / typography
- graphics
Work for this assignment should be submitted in PDF format on a new post marked with the category “Assignment 3C”. Files must be named with the following convention:
Firstname_Lastname_BizCard.PDF
Additionally, print a “mock-up” of your 3 design iterations and bring them to class.
