3.1.1. Reading & Exercise: Rhythm and Flow

Tutorial Exercise 1-Exercise: Rhythm
  • On an A4 sized page, create a rhythm with great variation.
  • Use vertical, horizontal, and diagonal lines, dots, squares, and type.





2.2.2. Exercise: Texture Exercises

Tutorial Exercise 2 - Draw 3-D objects, like cubes, pyramids, or spheres using your Photoshop or Illustrator tools. Think about where your light would be coming from, and shade in the opposite sides with varying intensities of texture to create the illusion of three-dimensional space.
Still working on the others, driving me nuts!

Update

Big delay! Have been stuck, not able to do much because I did not have the required software.. I have since trialled Adobe cs3 design premium, and now bought the student edition but waiting for the serial number. Still not much use having the software when you don't know how to use it so I have been doing tutorial after tutorial. Even simple things like making a sphere, or simple designs has been driving me crazy.

I have managed to get a half decent understanding of dreamweaver so have been working on assignment number 2. Flash, illustrator and fireworks still are in the distance but I will get there..
