Hello! I hope you are enjoying the long weekend.

Here is the handout I gave in class: GRA3611-ProductResearch – it is due 3/9/11.

In our last class we looked at the pathfinder palette and the different kinds of blending tools. It might be helpful to go through this tutorial just as an exercise if you are unfamiliar with blends and paths:

At this point everyone should have an idea for their product design/redesign. If you do not, please email me and lets try to nail it down this week. For homework I would like you to:
1. finish your inspiration boards
2. come up with a name for your product
3. choose two of your logo designs from your sketches and render them in illustrator

In our next class I will ask you all to present your ideas and designs to the class. This will be a nice opportunity for you to get feedback on your work.

We will not be meeting this week. Our next class is 3/2/11.

Please let me know if you have any questions.
Enjoy the rest of the week!
