Calligrams
For this project, you will create 3-5 Calligrams for each word you picked out of the random word list. Everyone has one animal and one food/food group.
You MUST showcase both more simplistic typographical solutions and illustrative solutions - see the 'whale' sample below for more ideas.
You will be turning in both your creative process, thumbnails and roughs, as well as your AI file to the assignment on Teams. You may not move onto creating on the computer until you have showcased a good understanding of the creative process. Please get approved first by either Ms. Nicole or Mrs. T!
