Pick a shape, use it repeatedly, in
black, gray, and white to build an
illustration
I selected a shape from the Shapes
options and began creating. I tried
a few different shapes and settled
on the TEARDROP. It is twisted,
stretched, layered and outlined to
present this image. I call it PURGE as
a representation of release and cleanse
that occurs when tears or rain fall.

Design a color flier to promote an
event.
Apply the design principles and use
appropriate typography.
Incorporate basic InDesign skills to
improve basic flier layout.
Retrieve image and logo from links
on this page.
Create a project folder with image,
logo and InDesign document to keep
links in InDesign intact.
Text, logo, image, and DTP were
provided. Initially I was to draw four
sample layouts. From those drawings,
a layout was chosen. Of the images,
I selected a young man smiling. I
flipped and cropped the image to have
his field of vision looking toward the
text and repeated it. The fonts were
chosen based on similarity to the logo.
I added blocks of color (black and
gray) to provide contrast.

Airsoft is a popular sport in my area
so I used this information to create
an event. The color scheme is based
on the scanned image. The camo
background is clip art. I modified
the color to match the scanned
image. Contrast colors of teal, orange
and gray are used. Fonts are Berlin
Sans FB Demi, and Bernard MT
Condensed.

Create a full-bleed, photodesign
project that includes:
An original quality image
A consistent color scheme based on
that image
Some text
A few design elements
The previous assignment was to take
six pictures with a digital camera for
the following areas: Light(inside/
outside) Focus(Foreground/
Background) Composition(One-third
Gridlines/Lead Room.
Of the photos, I was particularly
drawn to this one. It is of my father. I
incorporated the Fibonacci and placed
him in two/thirds of the project with
the text in the other third. The color
scheme is based on the colors in the
hat (complementary). The text is a
saying from Eleanor Roosevelt. The
design elements are the corner lines.

together gradually, using masks

Photoshop skills for layout with
multiple elements

Objective

Design a logo for a company:

Create three completely different,
original logos to fit a company or
personal image that will appeal to the
audience.
Use only the Illustrator tools to create
and draw your logos.
Refine one logo with variations for
color

Process

Magical Mary Fairy is my company.

I am in need of a logo so I chose to
do it for me. I wanted to incorporate
the Fairy aspect in the logo but also
emphasize the Magical Mary. I spent
several days doing drawings and
searching logo ideas on the web. I
chose the most promising that fit what
I was looking for. I used InDesign
for the font design and placement,
then, incorporated those ideas in the
Illustrator project.

Use the new logo to design consistent

Process

This is a fictional Association.

I used InDesign and Illustrator to
create my logo and design features.
The front of the card is vertical with
the Pole on the left and the Text at the
top Right aligned and the text in the
middle and bottom left aligned. I used
the same pole and climber on the card
as well as the shoes.
The back of the card is horizontal. I
am not sure if that is an issue but the
text is the same with the water mark of
the shoes.

Jason Stucki
Design a full-color, folding brochure
to help promote the company product,
service or location.
Set up and align a two-sided, folded
document.
Create an original, new logo and use
it in a brochure.
Incorporate at least four quality
images, not including the logo. One
should be clipped in Photoshop and
text-wrapped in InDesign so the text
follows the cutout shape of the image.
Use paragraphs, headers, and
subheaders.
Trim for a full bleed and print in
duplex (two-sided) color.
The company I selected is my
neighbors pool and spa, maintenance
and repair business. He had a
basic idea for a logo and the name
of the company, Bright Pools. I
incorporated some of the ideas he
suggested such as the font, colors and
general idea of the logo. The images
are a combination of web images and
originals
