  1. Everything seems to get all set so we can concentrate on our division. I hope we can come up with are theme color which will not distort when we print them in black and white. Looking forward to the exhibit that we are going to prepare. It will be better if we prepare all of them before crits.

  2. really enjoyed the brainstorming session of this class. it was nice to have a bit of a dialogue … it feels like we narrowed down the exhibition ideas and made them a little more focused and concentrated … i think we are on to something! fingers crossed!

  3. finally our plans for exhibition started and the group works are working great. I’m glad we are set up with the ideas now, and hope to share with class how it’s progressing. Our group are concerning about posters, flyers,etc so if anyone have ideas share with us! And if any group needs help with somethin lets help each other..yeah;)

  4. we (the promotion group) need pictures of the artworks for the poster and flyers! and we also need to decide on the ‘theme color’ for the postcards and posters

    I am really excited to collaborate more with the other groups to get a better idea of how the show will be constructed … it seems like we have really refined our direction.

  6. I think this week was really productive. We definitely needed to narrow down the theme and I really feel like we can pull this off now. I’d love to help with the promotion group (I have some ideas for logos, if we have one for this) and if any other group needs help let me know! bmykka@saic.edu. And don’t forget, if anything cool or interesting is happening within your groups, let my group know so we can document it! Thanks!
