What we will do first to get started

The first thing is to get a mock logo of the multi-piano concert. Approved by KCMTA

After we get approval we will take our first step into designing the brochure for Destination Musique

9/30/11



Greg’s focus is on the video/theme elements. He will continue to work to integrate the film with the design media, and to provide animations for the videos with assistance from the filmmaking students. He will also assist with any technical design elements when not working on video.

How we will divide the work:


Allison Porterfield9/30/11 22

Allison’s focus is the graphic design elements. She collaborates with Greg to understand the aspects represented in the film to be consistent in reflecting the theme. She is currently working on the program cover.

Jonathan’s focus is on graphic design elements as well, but he is dealing with the KCMTA Multi-Piano designs alone. These do no concern the theme. He is designing the logo that will appear on the website, t-shirt, flyer, etc. We collaborate for ideas to come up with the strongest design.
