First official day of fall break. I worked on my Graphic Design II project from 8-11:30. I made a mock up of the childrens book box that I'm doing, it was constructed using matte board. The hardest part was bending the matte board so they it looked the way I wanted.
Matte Board tip #1-> Flip an exacto blade over and score the lines that you want bent. Do this over and over removing some of the material to make it easier to fold.
Matte Board tip #2 -> Place a ruler on the flat area while you fold the other part up. This gives the rest of the piece support while your doing the bending.
Overall it was a great day. Nice weather and lots of loud music while I worked on projects. I also did some loose illustrations but they came out like crap.
