Illustration:
For this assignment, you will produce an illustration of a plate of cooked food. The food may be anything you like as long as it has been cooked. You may include other elements as well if you wish (fork, napkin, part of the table, etc. I recommend using an actual plate of food that you or someone you know has cooked, and have the plate sitting in front of you when you work (make sure you have already eaten first). You may use photographic reference material as long as the final product looks believable.

Your primary goal in illustrating cooked food is two-fold.
A. It must look like genuine, identifiable food!
B. The food you illustrate must look appetizing and delicious!

This illustration will be in color. You may use any media, or combination of media you like, as long as it is hand-illustrated, and not manipulated in the computer. The final image size will be 8" tall and 10" wide.

This illustration will become part of an advertisement that you will create for a restaurant, to be identified later.

Sketches and color roughs due at the beginning of class Wednesday. Final illustration is due Friday. Advertisement including your illustration is due Monday.

Advertisement:
The full-color ad you will produce for your restaurant will be 11" wide and 14" tall. You should use an existing establishment’s identity as the context for your ad. You should include the logo and standard typeface of the establishment. Your ad is to promote particular meal you have illustrated. Seafood combo platter. Steak and veggie special. Country breakfast special. These are the type of things you should be including. Also, include address, hours and price of special as well as a description of what is included with the meal.

Sketches and roughs for the ad are due Friday. Final ad, with your illustration included, is due at the beginning of class on Monday. The ad should be mounted to black matteboard with a 1/2" border on the top and sides and 1" on the bottom.
