Due Next Thursday, March 31

For next Thursday, bring in the following:
1. 2 full-color 11 x 17"print-outs of your train schedule. You must have one mock-up that is 2-sided (with the poster on the other side) and folded, and one that is 1-sided printed flat.

Regarding your train schedule, it is important that you figure out the following things at this stage:
A. How is your train schedule going to fold? This will prove very important as you tweak your text. You'll want to note where the folds occur in relation to the type. The text, ideally, should cross the folds. There may be some cases, especially with larger headlines, where this is more difficult, but in general, be conscious of the folds in relation to the text.

B. What is going to be your cover and back cover? This should be full integrated into your page design by this point.

C. Finally, keep in mind page composition. You don't necessarily need to have the table in the upper left-hand corner. How could the title, key and other additional information be incorporated into the composition in an interesting way.


2. 11 x 17" full-color print of your poster mocked up along with your train schedule.

3. 22 x 34" black + white print of your poster mocked up. This can be tiled together if need be.
