InDesign Scrollable Frame Issues 4.23.19

As IT has yet to install the ‘Universal Scrolling Frames’ on KN430 labs, the work around is that Troy will be handling the last step of this process.  It is the student’s responsibility to properly prep the task, Troy will simply complete the last step.  As a reminder students should…

1. Create the original text box with all necessary text, or oversized image
2. Create a second ‘frame’ that represents the viewable area
3. ‘Cut’ the original text box/image and ‘Paste Into’ the viewable frame
4. Put this object on a new layer titled ‘Scrolling Frames’
5. Troy will look for all objects on this layer and apply the ‘Universal Scrolling Frames’ to these objects
6. You should still export your ePub file as we discussed in class even without the last step completed.

Please contact Troy or Aimee with any questions.

FINAL PROJECT Requirements:  The goal of the final presentation is to assimilate and expand research on a focused topic from the Santiago trip to be presented in a visual format. The formats will be interactive (not book report or power point style), examples of previous projects shown 3/25 in class. Alternative presentations will be considered, discuss with Troy or Aimee. Troy will be presenting techniques in class to make presentations interactive, along with tutorials. Each group/student will present their final projects 10-11.45 am Thurs 4/25 in (our scheduled final exam period of) class. This exercise is practice in public presentation and learning how to make interactive digital presentations that can be used for portfolios, interviews, internships and future employment opportunities and enhancing the student’s communication skills. Each presentation is required:

1. A minimum requirement of 10 images, sketches or photos, each one must have a caption or label. A requirement of 2 sketches at a minimum within the minimum 10 images required. One interactive feature at minimum, for example slideshow (minimum of 3 images swapping in the same place) or a meaningful (interactive) panorama picture.  Optional considerations: video or audio.
2. Text to explain the analysis of the topic, including titles, and captions. Text must include no hyphens and be used to describe the project and analysis.
3. Student’s first and last name in the design of the layout
4. Title of project
5. Sources cited for any outside research/content that is not original to the authors of the project

Be sure to post these to the blog page and use the instructed category for each blog post.
