Section 1 Final/Fieldtrip

We're all clear for the Nevada Museum of Art field trip. It looks like the weather should hold out for us - it's supposed to be cloudy in the morning, but the snow is supposed to wrap up the night before. Please meet at the mac lab by 9am this Thursday - that should get you down the hill and to the museum by 10:15, our start time there.

DON'T FORGET TO BRING THE CD WITH ALL YOUR FILES BURNED ON IT< IF YOU DIDN'T TURN THAT IN LASRT WEEK. I have CDs from: Thaddeus, Jonathan, Matt, Diva, Maiken, Tom, Alex and Justin.

I'll meet you all at the museum. I have a hard copy of the Lulu book to show you - I think it came out well. See you all soon.

Final CD

On the CD I'm collecting for the final, you should have the following projects. You should give them filenames like this:

"(2-digit project number)-(your last name)-(project title).fileextension"

So if your name is Jane Smith, and the project was the self portrait, you would name the file:

01-smith-selfportrait.jpg

If you have more than one image for the project, append letters (A,B, C):

01-smith-selfportrait-A.jpg
01-smith-selfportrait-B.jpg

All the files for the CD should be flattened files.

And here are the project titles I'd like you to use.

1. Digital self-portrait, from three scans:

01-lastname-selfportrait

2. Text/image combo project (at least two versions)

02-lastname-textimage-A
