new logo and use it in a brochure. Incorporate quality images. Incorporate atleast four quality images, not including the logo. One should be clipped inPhotoshop and text-wrapped in InDesign so the text follows the cutout shape ofthe image.

Process: I started by creating a logo in Illustrator. I created a owery, plant andmade a circle around it to represent becoming one soul, mind, body, andspirit through yoga. I used green and blue and then pink as a pop of color. ThenI opened InDesign and created the brochure layout with boxes to represent textuntil I could ll them. I picked pictures that represent peace and calming like

sunsets and waterfalls.

Indie Yoga

Yoga has been around for ve thousand years. It is both

a physical and mental exercise to bring about self- un-

derstanding and strength. The word Yoga itself means

to join together because it brings your body and mind

together as one. Restore balance to your life. Yoga is an

expression of self-love and appreciation toward inner

peace. It brings serenity, love, and respect to yourself and

those around you. Yoga is a form of self-healing. If youre

nding youre missing something in life, it could be the

inner peace yoga brings. It requires strict discipline, but

then great reward. The natural health therapies of yoga

target the imbalance in ones soul, not just the symptoms

occurring. There are three main parts to yoga; exercise,

breathing, and meditation. These three parts target the

body, mind, and spirit. Yogas focus on the mind is found

in concentrating on dierent parts of the body. Theawareness from putting all thought energy to one section

of your body leaves no room for external noise. You are

able to think about one thing and that one thing only and

form a deep connection to it. Yoga is one of the only exer-

cises in the world that

can block out external

distractions complete-

ly. Stress from school,

thinking about plans

for dinner, or worries

of world are pushed

aside for that time

in yoga, and an

inner calm can

take over. Savasna

(the corpse pose) is

generally used in all

yogas for this ex-

act purpose. During

savasna, you lie on

your back, eyes closed,and let the weight of your

body relax and sink into

the ground. The instructor

will usually tell you to relax

all the dierent parts of

your body, one by one, until

you are in a meditational

state of mind.

The eight steps of Classical Yoga are

1) yama, meaning restraint refraining from violence,

lying, stealing, casual sex, and hoarding

2) niyama, meaning observance purity, contentment,

tolerance, study, and remembrance

3) asana, physical exercises

4) pranayama, breathing techniques

5) pratyahara, preparation for meditation, described as

withdrawal of the mind from the senses

6) dharana, concentration, being able to hold the mind on one

object for a specied time

7) dhyana, meditation, the ability to focus on one thing (or

nothing) indenitely

8) samadhi, absorption, or realization of the essential nature

of the self.

All ages of yoga participants

are welcomed and encour-aged. Yoga puts no limits on

anyone and can be used to

benet any age. Studies have

shown that practicing yoga in

elderly age limits the amount

of falling and improved bal-

ance and performance in

their bodies. Yoga has no neg-

ative impact; you can only

move forward and toward a

positive state.We provide yoga mats,

towels, blocks, straps,

and all supplies neces-

Logos

Description: I created a new logo for the local Romance Theater in Rexburg, Idaho.

Black Kitty Security

Black Kitty Security is a business for home security. They are reliable, safe, and will keepyour home free from burglaries. Customers don't have to worry about set-up, our workers doit for you!

Background of the logo design

My goal in creating this logo was to connect the name of the business and the logo. I chosea black cat because they are mysterious and stay unseen most of the time. I wanted people

to feel that their security system would work but be out of sight.

I made the logo simple because I want people to realize it is a simple company. It wouldn'ttake a genius to be able to set up the security system. They come and do it for you in anhour.

I just used an analogous color scheme with the blue and black. I didn't want this logo totake away from the actual company. Black Kitty Security is family friendly which is also whyI chose a cat for the picture of the logo. Children like cats and it wouldn't seem scary tothem.
