Date: March 24, 2016
Course/Instructor: Visual Media with Ben Pingel
Programs/Tools: Adobe Indesign, Illustator, and Photoshop
Objective:Learn how to utilize Adobe Indesign’s edit features and crea
a professional pamphlet.
Process: I made with a simple piece of paper. After I decided which folwanted, I drew in the rest of the details. I needed to measure the inches in ord
to get the right amount of folds. I then went on Adobe Illustrator and create
my trident/ olive logo. I was able to make it look like the trident was piercing th
olive through black ovals (look closely for detail.) Once I was done with Adob
Illustrator, I went onto Adobe Indesign. I typed out my paragraph information an
changed fonts, size, and alignment. I decided to under strike each food item tit
and increase the font size. In Photoshop I changed the
opacity, size, and orientation of my two restaurants
pictures. I also selected the colors for my scheme wi
the eye dropper.

need to edit the image. The image was already in a grayscale, so I didn’t add
any filters. For the“Fight Hunger” phrase, I downloaded a font from dafont.com

Course/Instructor: Visual Media with Ben Pingel
Programs/Tools: Adobe Illustrator and Indesign
Objective:Design a logo through tools in Illustrator that a companywould want to use in order to create a brand name.
Process: I used Adobe Illustrator to create my logo by tracing an
airplane shape. In order to get my spotty orange logo, I made dozens of
circles and colored them in various shapes of orange. After that, I was able
to create a color swatch from the shapes of orange and fill in my vector. My
second step was making a 3.5 x 2 (in) rectangle to frame my business card. I
choose gradient effect to add depth/ dimension to my card. After that, I
went on dafont.com to find the font “Post Script.” Afte
changing programs to Adobe Indesign, I typed in all
my information.
