Starting your style guides (September 12 - September 19)
Starting your style guides
This week you will be bringing the HTML pieces of the P1: Process style guide and initial branding ideas to our class.
A couple reminders:
- Weekly project deliverables are brought to the class time for critique. You do not need to submit them to Canvas weekly.
- The exercises are submitted to Canvas by 8:30am the morning-of lecture.
- You may reuse your exercise materials in your project deliverables if useful (up to you).
Class 'sequence'
Available on Canvas is an anonymous survey asking about your preference for class 'order' — lecture first or critique first — for weeks when we will be doing both. Please let me know your preference as soon as possible and we may be able to enact it in class tomorrow.
Critique sign-up
If you would like critique on your work tomorrow you will need to arrive by 4:45pm to sign up for a timeslot. Please have your materials ready-to-go for critique tomorrow as if critique will be at the start of class.
