Description //A two sided olding brochure.

Date //July 13, 2013

Course & Instructor //COMM 130 Section 2Eric Lybbert

Programs & Tools //Adobe InDesign/Adobe Illustrator/Adobe Photoshop

Objectives //

Set up and align a two-sided, olded document.Create an original company logo and use it in a brochure.Incorporate quality images.

Process //In Adobe InDesign I created a document that had two pages. I had an idea to do a very simple oldingbrochure. I used ruler guides to help me gure out my layout and to see visually where everythingwould be olded. I then sketched out on paper what I thought would look best on the brochure, such asimage placement. I chose my images or the brochure based upon color and how well they owed to-gether. I wanted it to display my best work but images that also worked well together. I then placed theimages into my InDesign document. For my text wrap image I wanted to use a camera with its camerastrap attached because it was long and skinny and made the text wrap very interesting. To create myimage or the text wrap I used Photoshop and cut my image out by selecting it and then rening theedges to make it work just perectly. I used paragraphs around my text wrap images with inormationabout my company.For the ront o my design I created a logo using Illustrator. However I was unable to get the look Iwanted because I wanted the words and box to be tilted so I switched back to InDesign and was able totilt it. My logo has a very light pink box below the heading o it. I wanted to incorporate that color againto add repetition so I created a gradient image on Photoshop and placed it on the inside o my brochure.
