LAITS Student Technology Assistants collaborate with the College of Liberal Arts faculty and administration by re-imagining their instructional and promotional projects with a creative use of video, audio, web and graphic design. STAs learn technical skills on the job with LAITS development studio staff. They build presentations, produce audio/visual works, scan text documents & perform image correction. STAs are instrumental in helping COLA faculty realize their vision for instructional technology projects used to enhance the teaching and learning experience.

Complit Banner Update

Update for Comparative Literature banner. I wound up using purple as the central color for both of the designs, but I may change the coloring later. I’m still doing some clean up work to make the curves smoother when I end up livetracing them. Most of the clean up needs to happen in the center and with the stairs.

 

For the first design, there is the problem of making the letters pop out without making them too different from the rest of the design. For both designs, the letter V should be integrated into the staircase but I have not been able to come into the office and work on this since last week. I am still not sure how to incorporate the rest of the letters into the designs.

 

Both of these are still drafts and require further work. I may wind up discarding both and working more towards incorporating more art nouveau detailing into the design and framing the letters with those details, as Suloni suggested.
