Merced and the San Joaquin Valley region have not received much positive press and the recent headline-making high rates of home foreclosure and unemployment have worsened the public perception (justified or misguided) of this area.
For this assignment, students act as important members of a mock non-profit organization in charge of promoting Merced to the national audience. They are given the task of designing a poster, with one to two images and a paragraph of 200 words, to show the "seductive" side(s) of Merced. They have the freedom to choose any subject matter (with or without people) and use any visual style that they deem appropriate to produce an effective poster.
There is no specified target audience, either. That is: the poster can appeal to the general public, families, business owners, developers, professionals, or young people like them.
They have the following options:
1) Simply submit 1-2 images and a text passage, or
2) Design an actual poster, with the image(s) and text incorporated, and submit a PDF of the poster (this option will be considered for a higher grade).
