Create several dierent logos that display a certain

company in various ways. Use Adobe Illustartor to

create the logos.

First I sketched the designs I wanted to try. Next I created some spacing on thesheet or each logo and a simple representation o the design,

using Adobe Illustrator tools. I started with the text o each logo and tried out

dierent onts and types. I tried out various sizes and shapes with the text and

the shapes and moved them in dierent places to see how they worked (I created

the shapes with the pen tool). I nished by cleaning all o the elements up and

straightening out the logos.

site, which were really helpul. I cropped the image in photoshop and started

the changing eorts or the photo. I saved the yellow rectangle 9 because

Epson Scanner and Microsot Word

Find, scan and import a high-quality image. Create a

ull-bleed designUse text boxes or layout in Word. Insert

and edit images in Word.

The process I ollowed to create this design started with the Epson scanner. Ichose an image to go with my bake sale theme and saved. Then I created a Word

Document and opened the publisher tab and started the design. I placed the image

and played with the idea o where my lettering would be placed. I eventually

decided it would be best to move the image up and stick the event inormation in

the bottom white space. I decided to created a right alignment with all o the text

and use a simple but catchy ont. I had the hardest time deciding what time to do

the ont color, I went with a simple and light that would contrast rom the

rest o the project.

theme and placed them through. I then wrote up the text and then added it to my

brochure. I made smaller elements to connect the dierent object, to create

repetition and to make a simple design. Ater reviewing in class I made a ew

on ading the dierent parts o the image to bring the Dalai Lama through but stil

leave some really cool edges and designs in the top layer. (Working with the 30%

opacity and larger circle. As well as the 100% smaller circle or a little bit). Ater

printing and reviewing I decided to work a little more with the opacity o the image

and where I wanted the text. I decided to put the text to the right o the image and

worked in dierent text boxes so I could move the quote in

Black & White promotional er to promote a graduate

leadership conerence.

Caryn Esplin

Adobe InDesign

Apply the design principles and use appropriate typography.

Incorporate basic InDesign skills to improve basic er layout.

Create a project older with image, logo and InDesign

document to keep links intact.

The rst start o my fier design was or me to gain a concept in my mind o what I wanted

to create. I had a ew ideas in mind o things that I liked, that caught my eye in a design and

so I tried to include those in the fier. I originally grabbed the picture that I wanted to use

and gured out how to size it, ater that I started using the rectangle create to place my title

where I knew it would relate to the picture and create a good fow. Next I gured out the two

onts that I wanted to use or the design and worked with those to enter the title and body

text in a way that was simple and readable, I really wanted graduate to stand out. I slowly

worked around and added a ew mores shapes that I thought would help draw anyones eye

to the fier and keep them interested in all o the inormation as well as add a little repetition

to the design. I nished up with adding the logo and spell checking the design, I viewed it

and made the minor adjustments I thought were needed to make it a good design to turn in

being sure to have correct alignment and the inormation in good proximity.
