Today Claire's lecture was titled 'The 10 Commandments of FCP' and included 10 things we must all check and do with any printed work before we print it. This will be a great list to refer back to when doing printed work to help us to make sure work is presented at it's best.
The 10 Commandments of FCP
- Thou shalt not present pixellated or distorted images
- Thou shalt use a grid structure
- Thou shalt respect the 10 commandments of type
- Thou shalt not use unnecessary elements on the page
- Thou shalt not use standard printer paper
- Thou shalt consider the aesthetic of the brand
- Thou shalt use spell check and proof read
- Thou shalt avoid design that does not work in context
- Thou shalt always do a test print
- Thou shalt use thy reflective journal
Within my sketchbook, I have written these up along with my notes from the lecture:
