In Class Activity – Visiting Alumni Poster Series

Task: Create a system for our visiting designer series. Design three online posters (one website per poster) for each visiter.

  • Both should feel like they’re part of the same series
  • Your posters should contain: The guest’s name, the date, the time, the location
  • Your posters should be responsive (use a media query) and should scale
  • Your posters should link to the other two posters in the series
  • You might consider keeping your posters mostly typographic and seeing how much variation you can achieve within a set of parameters.
  • You should use animation or an interactive element on the page
  • Please link to your posters on your class homepage

As a way of thanking our guests, we can consolidate our posters into one archive and share it with them!
