Quick reminders of what visual identity is Made for Creative iMedia R094 practice

The aim of the resource is for students to learn how to comment upon a visual identity using the logo to help them. Then they could use these ideas when designing their own visual identity in the NEA As well as the PDF version which can be filled in with a PDF reader, an editable presentation is included so you can add other logos e.g. school one or blank ones for the students to do themselves.

15 starter/plenaries you can use with your class Supplied in a PowerPoint presentation as well as PDF, not editable Designed for R094 in J834 specification but most could be used with R081 as well

A practice skills sheet for Adobe Photoshop CC with column to tick/rate/assess We sell video tutorials available to support the checklist as well

Our Know How tasks are shorter tasks (which can go further!)
