Advertising

We talked about ads for The Tower. Two students have half-page ads but no one else has anything for November. The instructor told students we needed to get more ads for the newspaper and to focus on the December issue and the coupon offer. Jonathan has an ad for the December issue.

Next we discussed the field trip. We will have no class next week because we are meeting Saturday, Nov. 6, for the Paley Center. 

This week the instructor introduced the first Photoshop assignment. We went over the terms of resampling, downsampling and upsampling. We also discussed interpolation. The instructor handed out the instruction sheet for resampling a photo for the web. She asked students to use their own photograph but if they want to, they can use the pineapple image.

Students should upload the image to Blackboard. If they cannot get on Blackboard, they should email their resampled image (to 72) to the instructor.

To Do for Next Class:
