Book Project Complete

Well, I followed the templates to the letter, and I do know what i'm doing, but their templates for the covers were really off. They were off by .9 in their bleeds, and wouldn't accept until I removed all bleeds, which of course messed up my cover. Also, their concept of a spine is really off. At any rate, the rest turned out really well, so that's good.

3 weeks left.

Book Project

While I am not pleased with this project, I am going to do it right. I am even using it to hopefully get me a job, which is probably the only reason i'm truly caring about it at all. This being my last semester, I shouldn't deign to give a crap about this class or this project, considering that for a class professing to teach InDesign, we haven't opened it once or learned a damn thing in class. Regardless, i'm just going to suck it up and do the project.

Book Project.

I despise this book project. I honestly wouldn't like it even if we were only doing PDF's, but adding a cost to it this late in the semester is a kick in the teeth. Please don't ever make students do this again - especially when we've NEVER opened InDesign or Illustrator in this class, or learned anything about them.
