project 2: critical analysis

3. 2/24
in-class: Review examples (MODES AND TROPES)

homework:
Tropes
Select 3 of the trope examples and explore different compositional and typographic approaches for display. For each label the trope, critique how/to what effect it is employed (for audience/context/content), and credit the source.

Modes
Thoughtfully compose and label each “set” of visual examples in a considered arrangement. For each organize and label by mode and graphic component, include explanation of your selection as it applies to theory, and credit the source.


For each:
• Examples: improve selection, as needed
• Descriptions: must be well-written and exemplify your understanding of theory
• Composition: approaches must be different from each other and from Project 1. (Y
ou will apply the final design style to the remaining tropes later.) Start with thumbs (post to blogs). Execute digitally.
• Print on 8.5x11 or 11x17 pages. 3 tropes + 3 mode sets = 6 iterations total.
