During the 2nd semester there will be a variety of projects listed 
below.  These are to be completed both in class and as out of class 
homework.  The instructor will evaluate these.  These projects will 
comprise 100% of the students final grade.

Project #1 - Light Source       20%
Project #2 - Design Styles      30%
Project #3 - Lip Sync Layouts   40%
Test                            10%
                   TOTAL       100% 

Grading for these layouts will be based on the following criteria:
The layouts are graded on the following areas.
1) Creativity/Effort - How much information you place in your layout. 
   The bare minimum will receive a lower grade than the one with some 
   thought put into it.
2) Perspective - Make sure all the elements within your environment 
   are working to the proper vanishing points and horizon lines.
3) Depth Perception - Does the layout look flat?  Are the elements in 
   their proper positions in relation to the other elements?  Too far 
   apart?  Are the size relationships correct?
4) Composition - Are the elements placed within the field in an 
interesting way with a central focal point?  Do the surrounding 
elements compliment the focal point or divert your attention?

Students are required to hand in all work by a given deadline date.  
Emphasis on meeting a deadline with professional delivery of work is 
considered to be part of the student's training for industry.  
Attendance and participation in class are factors, which are also 
taken into account for grading.

Unless there are verifiable medical or compassionate grounds for 
lateness, late assignments will be downgraded as follow:
One day late:     20% reduction
Two day late:     an additional 10% reduction
Three days late:  an additional 10% reduction
After a period of three days' lateness, projects will not be 
marked.
