National Yun- Lin University of Science and Technology, Digital Media Center Taiwan, July 7-18 2008

Every year, the government of Taiwan selects their best design students in design for the purpose of choosing, by competition, the very best students who will be granted full scholarship to pursue their graduate study in visual communication abroad at schools in the United States, UK and Germany.

The competition consists of lectures and assignments, given by design professors from around the world, each presenting topics from his/her field of expertise. Each visiting professor assigns a project, critiques all student work and scores the results.

This year, Pratt faculty members Alisa Zamir and EnSun Lee were invited as guest speakers and judges in the field of Visual Communication.
Alisa Zamir's topic for the design assignment was to design posters to graphically convey the concept "LESS IS MORE". The students were given a 24 hour deadline to complete and present their solutions.
EunSun Lee's assignment was a series of typography exercises with only half a day to complete.

There will be a reception at Pratt Manhattan on October 10th at 6pm, where Professors Zamir and Lee will share their experience at Yun Lin University. A talk, a visual presentation and an exhibit of all posters from the competition.
