The Story Of....

Apply your knowledge of typography and the type tools in Illustrator to the creation of a book that tells the "story of...."

The book will use type to describe the story or message in WRITTEN WORDS, but also with VISUAL EFFECTS and ORGANIZED DESIGN.

Here's the requirements:

FORMAT
 You are creating a four page book, with 8 pages to design.
Page sizes are 5.5 X 8.5 inches (fold a letter size print in half)

DESIGN
Organize the information in the book using a visual "grid" and guides....
Feel free to manipulate the grid structure, even "break off it" to get visual drama.
Each page should have a VISUAL HIERARCHY to lead your viewer through the information.

CREATIVITY
Use type to convey the message visually as well as in readable words..
RESEARCH how other designers use type effectively...
