Printing Book

For our process and materials class we were assigned local printers to research and write about. We are all assigned 2 printers and after we gathered all our information we were assigned to design a book, collecting all of our printers for a handbook that we can keep and use for further projects. This was a really cool thing for us to get to do because we have all designed book covers and 10 page books we bound ourselves. But this time we got to send them off and get them professionally bound and printed. We all had to design our two pages of printers any way we wanted but they had to feel like our word pair project we did a few weeks ago. (My words were fast and slow) – that was a project where we were given these words and had to take photos and manipulate them using our knowledge of Photoshop and make them feel like the words themselves. Any who… so each page was different because each person in the class was assigned different words which made for interesting layouts. The only thing that was supposed to be consistent was the cover, title page and table of contents. This was a fun project because it was an on going thing that combined 3 or 4 different pieces of knowledge we had learned this semester and how to send things off and to keep in mind what is good design.
