FA102a Introduction to New Media Design Professor Tom Klinkowstein fatik@hofstra.edu course blog: https://fa102afall2018.wordpress.com/ Assignment Seven Professional Presentation Print and Portfolio Project Create a professional quality display print that summarizes elements from all of this semester’s assignments. Do the same as a web portfolio.

• In professional practice, large display prints are used to summarize components of a

larger project with many components, and to help the viewer make connections between those elements. We will use the print as a reminder of all the elements in this semester’s assignments, as well as for possible inclusion in the annual spring Student Art/Design Show.

• The portfolio site is useful for internship interviews and applications for your first

position, post-Hofstra. Process / Elements Part A)

• 24 x 36” in InDesign.

• Use the template provided as a guide for the layout. Adjust the layout as needed.
• Important: Align where possible. Use a flush left, ragged right grid (such a layout

promotes clarity and suggests professionalism.)

• Use 75-85% of the page space.
• Keep spacing between elements consistent.
• Line up elements on an imagined grid (or, turn that feature on in InDesign; search for

how to do this if needed).

• Use the caption text below (in red) for each major element. In your layout,
• mit all quote marks (“). Your text will be in black.
• The rules (dark lines) on the template are to show position. In your file, use a light

gray, 1 pt., 20% black, rule around images only.

• Include the following elements (listed in order from top to bottom of the layout):
