For this purpose, package designs do not just inform the customers, but also the design can provoke feelings and communicate emotions. An effective package looks attractive, impresses the viewer with its creativity and is just nice to have on the shelf.

<span style="color: #000000; font-family: 'Times New Roman','serif'; font-size: 16px;">You are going to create your own paper toy using a blank template created by Bryan Green. First you need to make a prototype. <span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman','serif'; font-size: 16px;">A **prototype** is an early sample or model built to test a concept or process or to act as a thing to be replicated or learned from.
 * 1) <span style="color: #000000; font-family: 'Times New Roman','serif'; font-size: 16px;">Choose one of the four templates that Bryan Green has created for you.
 * 2) <span style="color: #000000; font-family: 'Times New Roman','serif'; font-size: 16px;">Hand draw your design on the template.
 * 3) <span style="color: #000000; font-family: 'Times New Roman','serif'; font-size: 16px;">Cut it out and tape it together, the design does not have to be in color. (this is a prototype)
 * 4) <span style="color: #000000; font-family: 'Times New Roman','serif'; font-size: 16px;">Turn it into Ms. Blakely to grade.

<span style="color: #000000; font-family: 'Times New Roman','serif'; font-size: 16px;"> <span style="color: #000000; font-family: 'Times New Roman','serif'; font-size: 16px;">Next you are going to turn you prototype into a digital version.
 * 1) <span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman','serif'; font-size: 16px;">In the resource folder you will find the same 4 versions of blank templates created by Bryan. (they are PDFs)
 * 2) <span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman','serif'; font-size: 16px;">Open your template in Adobe Photoshop and use your prototype to design your paper figure.
 * 3) <span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman','serif'; font-size: 16px;">Use the line tool, paint bucket, and paint brushes! Don’t forget about patterns!
 * 4) <span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman','serif'; font-size: 16px;">When you feel that you are done make sure you save the file in your own folder and title it **PaperArt&YOURLASTNAME.psd**
 * 5) <span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman','serif'; font-size: 16px;">Print out your good copy and test it out to make sure that everything lines up when you cut and tape it.
 * 6) <span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman','serif'; font-size: 16px;">After you have tested your good copy then save it as a PDF and upload it to the wiki page. Please provide a brief description of your toy.
 * 7) <span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman','serif'; font-size: 16px;">Next print a final copy on thick paper to printer #8770. Cut, fold and GLUE!
 * 8) <span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman','serif'; font-size: 16px;">Fill out a rubric and turn in your paper figure
