Beuerlein: Refined Proposal and Progress

UPDATED PROPOSAL HERE

I've collected 6 different articles that discuss the current packaging limitations in the industry as well as some background information on the problem I am attempting to solve with this project. I've annotated these sources to really solidify my knowledge of the market and inconsistencies that exist within it.

Carey Week 1 Timeline Update

Week 1 deadline: research books/book design

I have almost finished a book that I received from the library about Nancy Drew and feminism and have checked out another about Nancy Drew and gender roles. In addition, I found the earliest editions of Nancy Drew that maintain the story and language of the 1930 publication instead of the 1959 rewrite. I have begun to get all of the text into a document so I can set it later.

Kleiner - THREE TYPES proposal

THREE TYPES proposal

In terms of progress, I'm a bit behind. I haven't been able to really devote myself to research on any of the other types of learning styles besides Visual, and I'm low on ideas for what to do for the other two typographies.

I'm planning on spending a lot of time this week and weekend on looking into each learning style and sketching, and I plan to have my full proposal complete with inspiration and mock ups.

Since last week, I have progressed by updating my proposal, and finding inspiration in both my own work and others. I've refined what I want my physical project to look like, as well as decide on a video of my poster elements and a take away of a business card.
