Description:Business card for a company, using original logo
Programs Used:Adobe llustrator, Adobe InDesign
Date:November 8, 2014
Course:Comm 140 Section 01
Instructor:Cory Kerr
Objectives:Design a new logo and create a business card with a consistent
layout and design.
Process:
Weaver Beaver is a business that sells hand-weaved bracelets, watches, belts,
and survival bands out of paracord. Leland, the owner, is Canadian, so I used a
beaver as the logo, as it is a national symbol of Canada. Leland sells mostly to
hikers and outdoor enthusiasts, so the design is organic and earthy.
I used the shape builder tool in Illustrator to create the beaver and a dierent
brush for the dot on the i in weaving. In inDesign I decided to split the logo
apart for the business card (using ungroup) and put the beaver on the back
with the contact information.

Description: Letterhead for a company, using original logo
Programs Used:Adobe Illustrator, Adobe InDesign
Date:November8, 2014
Course:Comm140 Section 01
Instructor: Cory Kerr
Objectives:Design a new logo and create stationery with a consistent layout
and design
Process:
After I had my logo and design concept, I used inDesign to create theletterhead. I used an o-white box for the background. The ragged brown
lines were made with a special brush and I used the same green circle in my
logo with a decreased opacity for the watermark. I repeated the same dot in
Lelands name to carry the same theme throughout.

Description:A montage with a spiritual theme using multiple images blended
together
Programs Used:Adobe Photoshop
Date:October 24, 2014
Course:Comm140 Section 01
Instructor:Cory Kerr
Objectives: Learn how to use photoshop layers. Create a unied image frommultiple images by using lters and editing techniques.
Process:
I wanted to visually convey the contrast between lightly holding to the world,which is dark and gloomy, and tightly holding to the things of heaven, whichare light, airy, and bright. I used the magnetic lasso tool to select around the
parts of the earth, cloud, and st images that I wanted and rened the edges
(softened, feathered, and reduced the radius) to create softer edges that
would blend better in the nal design. I also reduced the opacity of the earth
and st images to fade into the background and used the blur tool to blur theclouds into the black background. I created a mask on the earth image and
adjusted the hue to match the color in the sunburst and st image. Finally,
I used the eye-drop tool to match the beige of lightly and the black oftightly to the images in the design.

Objectives: Create images and logos from scratch using Illustrator tools
Process:
One Raindrop Foundation raises money to build wells in Africa, so every
person who donates adds another raindrop to the ocean. I used the pen
and shape builder tool to create waves for the rst logo. Using the pen tool, Icreated the same raindrop I used for all three designs. I also used the pen andshape builder tools to create the hands in the second design.

Description: A two-sided folding brochure
Programs Used: Adobe InDesign, Adobe Illustrator, Adobe Photoshop
Date: December7, 2014
Course:Comm 140 Section 01
Instructor:Cory Kerr
Objectives:Learn to put together a folding duplex brochure and print so
everything lines up properly
Process:
After doing some research on Susan G. Komen to get a feel for the nature
and design of the organization, I created a layout in InDesign using rulersand guides, with dierent shades of boxes with labels to show the general
layout. I then created my logo in Illustrator, using the shape builder and pen
tool to create the race ribbon. I split the logo into parts so I could use them
for dierent areas of my brochure. I then placed all the images and the logo
parts into my inDesign mockup, using shapes and the eyedropper tool to getconsistent colors throughout.

Description:Webpage designed to showcase an original logo
Programs Used:TextWrangler, Adobe Photoshop
Date: November22, 2014
Course:Comm 140 Section 01
Instructor:Cory Kerr
Objectives: Learn HTML and CSS basics
Process:
I created the basic webpage with HTML in Textwrangler (using a logo I hadpreviously made) with dierent headers and an unordered list. To validate
the code, I used http://www.W3.org HTML validator to make sure everything
worked right. I then connected a pre-made CSS document to my HTML to
work with the fonts, colors, backgrounds, and other visual aspects of the page.
I opened my logo in photoshop to nd its color codes using the eyedroppertool. I also changed the border size and increased the padding in some areas
to allow for good proximity and alignment.

Description:Full color Event Ad for a Canadian towns local plebiscite
Programs Used: Microsoft Word
Date: October11, 2014
Course:Comm 140 Section 01
Instructor: Cory Kerr
Objectives:Learn to scan quality images. Create quality designs in MicrosoftWord.
Process:
I brainstormed message ideas that would motivate Cardston residents to
show up to vote at their plebiscite. After gaining some ideas from my designle, I created several sketches of possible ideas. My favorite sketch was made
in Word, using an image I had scanned. I used tracking and kerning to get the
type to follow the line of the chickens beak and the eyedropper to match the
type color to the image.

Description:Photodesign with color scheme and original photography
Programs Used: Adobe Photoshop
Date: October17, 2014
Course:Comm 140 Section 01
Instructor:Cory Kerr
Objectives: Learn basic photography and photo editing skills. Choose a color
scheme to go with a photo and create a design in photoshop.
Process :
I decided on a split complementary color scheme, using the green and rustybrick from my photo and a purple, and then edited the photo in photoshop to
pull out the colors I wanted. I wanted to portray the Liu Xiobo quote visually
and show how hatred and enmity have the power to corrode and poison a
nation. I decided to create a sort of American ag with my picture and quotes.
I repeated the diagonal lines throughout and balanced the purple splashes ofcolor diagonally to create ow through the design. I also worked to keep the
busyness of the design in the upper two-thirds of the design and maintain a
good amount of negative space.
