Buchtelite Media Kit Design

Embed Size (px)

DESCRIPTION

Tasked with the transformation of the Buchtelite's Rate Card into a Media Kit, Mahala Bloom worked with The Buchtelite Student Newspaper to create a cost-effective design that could be printed from office printers but still created a polished look for potential advertisers. The final design marries Buchtelite identity with University of Akron undertones.
