Visual Rhetoric Workshop--Composition

First, we'll go over some resources and some primary concepts

  • Robin Williams' four design principles (pp attached below)
  • Robin Williams' font characteristics (pp attached below)
  • Color Theory Resources

Next, we'll put these principles into practice with a sample paper. Stuff to think about:

  • Margins
  • Headers and Sub Headers
  • Font choice
  • Font size
  • White space
  • Line Spacing
  • Image Size
  • Framing Images
  • Caption Boxes

Finally, if we have time, we'll talk about resizing images, framing images, and including captions in Macromedia Fireworks.
