“Less is more:” This advertisement promotes the benefits of small class sizes at Avondale College of Higher Education. It is designed by Design Studio and Public Relations Practice students who attended a masterclass with lecturers Donna Pinter (graphic design) and Bruna Tawake (communication) on the process of producing a design brief. The class helped the students understand the benefits—and the challenges—of producing accurate briefs. It also required the students to work together—a trial, if you like, for second semester’s Jacaranda Banquet, the success of which both classes are responsible.
