quality images with eye catching article titles to intrigue your audience into
grabbing your magazine off the shelf.
Date:
September 28, 2016
Corse Instructor:
Sister Rodriguez
Programs/ Tools:
Indesign
Objectives:
Better understand typeography design and layout.
Process:
I sketched on paper a few possible options for layouts
Next I created a shape map of the covermagazine-shape-map
I knew I wanted to use black and white at my text colors because my
background was blue and I though simple looked better
Then I found a photo of myself that wanted to use (something kept
going wrong when I tried to edit it in Photoshop and place it in InDesign the
quality was very poor so I left the background)
Next I opened up InDesign and created a new 8.5 x 11 inch page.
I then placed in my PSD document.
I then proceeded to add text boxes with all the different articles I wanted
to include.
Once I was finished, I saved the InDesign file and then exported a JPEG at
150 ppi.
I chose to make my name the next most prominent title you read because it’s
all about me and who I am which starts by knowing my name.
4. Prezi Presentation

Programs/ Tools:
Prezi
Objectives:
Better understand the prezi softwear.
Process:
After I researched, I chose an idea and then started sketching. I sketched out
an idea that I had in my head regarding ways to be more creative. I chose to
go with a child jumping as my graphic and then work around that
I opened up Photoshop to create my background. I used my sketch as my
basic foundation. I started by finding a large sized file of a child jumping
then added colored shapes around to give it a more fun feel. I added the text
and other elements so that they would be solidified in their position when I
started working in Prezi.
Next I went into the heart of Prezi, added my background, and started edit-
ing. I added more of my content on the sides and then worked on
the transitions.
5. Photo Design
Description:
Design a photodesign project that includes an original, new quality
image, a consistent color scheme based on that image, some text, and a few
design elements.

Corse Instructor:
Sister Rodriguez
Programs/ Tools:
Photoshop
Objectives:
Display your ability to design an attractive layout with text and images.
Process:
I decided what color scheme I was going to use. I knew that I wanted to use a
photo of my type writer
I only did a little work to my photo increasing the levels and making it a
bit lighter.
I created a new 8.5 x 11 inch document in Photoshop.
Then I pulled my photo on top of it and started designing.
I added the color bars on top and bottom as well as the thin bars on top to use
as my color swatches
Next I added my writing to incorporate the gold tone again in my design I
also changed the dots on the I’s to the light circles to create more color unity
throughout my work
I worked really hard to make my color swatches not feel like random circles or
squares in my work but rather part of the design.
6. Montage
Description:
Create a spiritual poster montage using images and type. You can use a
scripture, a quote, a thought, whatever you choose, but it must be spiritual in
nature. Choose two or more images. You may use your own photos or
gather some from the internet since students are allowed rights to use
internet images as long as it is for a school project only. Create this montage
by using a layer mask to blend images.

Programs/ Tools:
Photoshop
Objectives:
Display your ability to design an attractive layout with text and images.
Process:
I decided what my message and meaning would be first
Then I found the photos I wanted to use online of pioneers and refugees and
the photo of Christ
Next I thought of the conference talk from back in April about the refugees
and he used the scripture Matt 25:36 so I used this as my inspiration
I shortened the scriptures to just a few words to make it more powerful
I then added the two photos around Christ to show the different people
suffering at different times but that Christ is equally concerned about both
just as we should be.
I used the mask layer in photo shop to blend the two photos together.
7. Business Idenity
Description:
The company you designed a logo for in 6C has now asked you to design a
business card (front and back) and letterhead using the new logo. Research
well-designed letterhead and business cards. Use the new logo to design
consistent layouts and branding for a business card and letterhead.
Date:

Corse Instructor:

Programs/ Tools:
Adobe Illistrature & InDesign
Objectives:
Create a striking logo and unity across several business documents.
Process:
I first created my logos. I knew I wanted some kind of type logo.
I did this because in our focus book when it talks about the power of branding
I wanted the name of the business to be recognized as soon as you see just
two letters
Once I chose my logo I started with my business card.
I did a vertical business card because not many people do that and its more
original with my simpler text logo
I also added the color green in my logo in the green for my color scheme
My goal throughout the project was to keep it looking professional
and simple.

Programs/ Tools:
Adobe Illistrature
Objectives:
Create an infographic that is informative and creative.
Process:
I started brainstorming some topics and ended up with a “How To “ clean
your closet.
I did some research to find different tips and a few facts about clothes.
I then sketched out some graphics that I knew I wanted to include in the
infographic (the hanger, dress, and tag).
Next I opened up Illustrator and started on my Infographic.
I changed the layout several times but felt the flow was best with the how to
process first and the fact second followed by the graph dress and another fact.
$1700 is left alone to draw attention.
I added the gold swirls to help draw your eyes down and create a better flow.
10. HTML Coding

Corse Instructor:
Sister Rodriguez
Programs/ Tools:
Notebook++
Objectives:
Use HTML & CSS coding to design a webpage.
Process:
First I used my logo from a previous project.
I resized my logo to be no longer than 500 px on the long side.
I created my HTML file and started adding my content and tags.
Then I created my CSS file and made sure to link it in the HTML code.
I customized my CSS page to match my logo and business colors and fonts.
I left my back ground a solid color because I don’t have any images and I
needed the color to tie into my webpage and create a color scheme.
I then made sure to validate my HTML and CSS.
11. Web Page
Description:
Create a web page layout for a new company website to communicate the
executive committee’s vision to the web developer. Your full color, high

Corse Instructor:

Programs/ Tools:
Photoshop
Objectives:
Use photoshop to create the template for a webdesign.
Process:
I first picked an idea of what I was going to use for the basis of my website. I
chose my pregnancy.
I then started sketching an idea of how I wanted to lay it out. I came up with
a few ideas I wanted it to have several photos and an original lay out
After I sketched it on paper, I then jumped into Photoshop and opened the
12-column grid. I started to create my wireframe to get me started.
After my wireframe, I started to add the actual content and photos.
My final design ended up being a little different from my original sketch and
wireframe from teacher suggestion about the organization of my header, I
decided to center my tag line to the center of the page like my navigation bar
instead of the center from the edge of my logo. I also moved my social media
links to create more space to add some content.
12. Brochure
Description:
Design a full-color, folding brochure to help promote the company product,
service or location. The purpose of your brochure may be informational or
advertising. You may choose ANY topic. Make this something you enjoy.
Date:
November 30, 2016
Corse Instructor:
Sister Rodriguez
Programs/ Tools:
Photoshop, InDesign, Illistgrature
Objectives:
Use all three adobe programs to design a folding brochure that is creative and
informative.
Process:
I first created the giraffe logo in Illustrator.
Next I created the other geometric animal images. Originally, I left two of
them empty from color but the teacher thought it looked incomplete so I
filled them with color.
Next I went into InDesign and started to design my brochure. I wrote my
body copy and added the body copy so I knew how I want it to fit.
I saved the images as Photoshop documents so when I was in InDesign I could
edit the original and it would open in Photoshop. Then I could edit the
coloring, etc and it would automatically update the link in InDesign.
After I had all of my images and body copy text placed I felt that the front
and back cover were too plain so I added a pattern at 10% transparency to
make it more interesting.
