Newspaper (re)Design Clinic – 2019 MIPA One Day Workshop

Michigan State University Communication Arts & Sciences Building 404 Wilson Road, East Lansing, MI, United States

This course is intended for students who are fairly new to design and want to start working on the design of their publications for the 2019-20 school year.  The course will focus on three main areas: 1. First part of the course will be a basic intro to design theory that will give you a vocabulary you can use with each other and your staffs; 2. From there we will look at what’s trending in publication design right now and discuss how these techniques can be adapted to a variety of coverage concepts; and 3. In the last portion of the class, we will give you time to work in teams on some design/redesign ideas for your publication with the chance to get input from an instructor.
