Prototype of What not to do

So second term has started and is in full swing from day one. Initially I wanted a different project, but due to waking up three minutes late, I had to settle with my third choice ( I know not even second choice). So I am in the newspaper club project, and even though I wasn't very keen at first, I have to say just after one class, I really like the whole idea. For the first time I have a clear idea on what I am to do, which I have to say is something very new for me. We are to make a 12 page newspaper which is to explain how and what is needed by a graphic designer to function in the 21st Century (just what I need)

So we were separated into groups, spent some time on the six men and then we made two prototype.

So we decided to make our first prototype on contemporary graphic designers and the second on the history of graphic design.


So after two hours, we went back quite happy with ourselves that we had managed to complete the task in time......Wrong! Our prototype's were not even close to what we should have been making. Nowhere in our newspapers had we even mentioned how to function in the 21st century. So now I know what not to do, I can move on and focus all my energy on what I should be doing.
