Task 1 Glossary: Knowing the key terms will enable you to understand Graphical language, access the other tasks and make rapid progress when you start. Please complete the table, finding the ‘Graphical’ definitions of all the terms

3. Task 3- As Swifty does in the images above, redraw each logo by hand but adapt it so it says YOUR name. You may not have all the letters to copy, so you will have to think what the letters of your name will look like in that style and how they will fit together. Draw and re-draw each logo until it’s really good, in order to show development, rather than one final image.
