Monster Rubric (HOW YOU GET YOUR GRADE):
GETTING STARTED ON YOUR DESIGN
Monster Design
Begin with an 8.5" x 11" (portrait or landscape) Adobe Illustrator document.
- Follow your sketch design.
- It is ok if you want to take a photo of your sketch with your iPad place it in Illustrator to reference
- File > Place
- I would LOCK this placed layer (click on it, then go up to Object > Lock > Selection)
- Place this on the BOTTOM layer (you must remove this layer before you turn in the monster)
- Make all the body parts separate so that you can colorize them to look 3-D
- Use multiple layers
