**DIRECTIONS**: This assignment will allow students to work with a FREE web-based application called TOONDOO.com. TOONDOO is a graphic design tool that allows students to easily create comic strips and flash comics. The objective is for you to utilize this site, expose you to its many features and functions. You will be demonstrating your knowledge of basic graphic design tools and making comparisons with Illustrator and TOONDOO on our wiki. THIS IS A PROJECT WITH MANY STEPS – **PLEASE –** FOLLOW EACH STEP BELOW. Create a character of yourself. Find attributes that you have and create yourself as a cartoon. Everything from your skin color to your torso to your nose should posses your real-life characteristics. This will be added to your “GALLERY” **20pts.** Create a character of Mr. Nielsen. Have fun with this one, just make is appropriate. This will be added to your “GALLERY” too. **10 pts.** You will create three comics. **15 pts each.** Your comics must demonstrate concept knowledge of a basic graphic design tool. Graphic design tools you can choose from are: **Pencil – Eye Dropper – Layer Window – Zoom Tool – Color Palette** Your comic must begin with me teaching the concept, the design tool must be “labeled” in the first word cloud. Ex. “Okay Class, we are going to work with the Zoom Tool today.” The Zoom Tool was labeled. You will embed these comics to your wiki page. We will embed these as a class. You will then message me through the wiki telling me you have the assignment complete. This is how you will submit your work for grading.
