You can use a photography theme (using only your own photos), or a graphics theme with design elements you create in PhotoShop (not third party clipart!), or a mix of the two.

(David Ogilvy youtube to watch (with headphones please!): http://youtube.com/watch?v=0kfsnjcUNiw 1. Think about the psychology of how we look at print ads. Include the hierarchy of visual, caption, headline, copy, and signature. 2. Use a Full Bleed on your image. 3. Use tracking to avoid widows and orphans. If you are using wide tracking, remember we generally would use that for words written in ALL CAPS, not lowercase words. 4. ...

Seams should be, well, seamless. The edges of the repeat should wrap around and reconnect in a creative way. Please see samples at http://squidfingers.com/patterns/. To get an idea of complexity, I am including a sample of a former student’s work here: Notice that this is more complex than a large X through the middle of each repeating square - and shapes interlock across the edges of each square.

We tend to think of them as two separate styles of work. The challenge for this assignment is to merge the styles together. Starting with one of your own photos, use the pen tool to create shapes that are cut out from the photo and filled with patterns, textures, or another photo.
