March 26, 2016
Objective: Set up and align a two-sided, folded document; Create an original,
new logo and use it in a brochure; Incorporate quality images. 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; Write at least 250 words of original copy in at least three
paragraphs, headers, and subheaders; Trim for a full bleed and print in duplex
(two-sided) color.
Description: This project is a demonstration of my skills in setting up a
brochure.
Process (Programs, Tools, Skills): For the overall layout, I used Adobe
InDesign. I designed the logo in Adobe Illustrator, and I edited the photos
using Adobe Photoshop. I set up the brochure by setting up grid lines to line
everything up.
Message: To teach race fans about the Delta Wing.
Audience: Anyone who is interested in learning more about the Delta Wing.
Top Thing Learned: I learned how to make text adjust its position to an image.

Objective: Use the basic tools in Illustrator & InDesign; Create a new logo to
fit a company or personal image. Do not imitate existing logos or use previous
designs. Dont use photos or live trace; Use the new logo to design consistent
layouts for a business card and letterhead. Photos are okay on business card
and letterhead as additional design elements. Letterhead should be 8.5 x 11,
full-bleed optional, but trim only .125. Business card should be 3.5 x 2 and
printed above center on a vertical page; Apply typography rules, keeping small
copy; Keep designs simple with light watermarks and drop shadows and plenty
of white space; Include contact information: name, address, phone, website,
and email on each piece. Use periods, bullets, or spaces in phone number; no
parentheses/ hyphens.
Description: This is a business card for a mock business.
Process (Programs, Tools, Skills): I used Adobe Illustrator to create the
company Logo. I used the pen tool to make the original red D and the
white W. I used the rotate tool to give the text in the Logo its tilt. I am not
sure exactly what the angle is. If I were to estimate, I would say somewhere
between 15 and 25 degrees. I created the Card using Adobe InDesign.
Message: Delta Wing as a professional business.
Audience: Current and Future Business Partners of Delta Wing.
Top Thing Learned: It is difficult to make business cards.
Color scheme and color names: Red Monochrome

Comm 130 - Section 8
Sister Nugent
February 20, 2016
Objective: Create three completely different, original logos to fit a
company or personal image that will appeal to the audience. Do not
imitate existing logos or use previous designs; Market research: gather
opinions from at least ten people about which logo appeals most to
them; Use only the Illustrator tools to create and draw your logos.
(No Illustrator pre-fabricated flares, symbols, etc.. No photos or livetracing. You may use an image or drawing as a guide to trace it with the
pen/pencil, but delete the image before submitting.); Refine one logo
with variations for color.
Description: This is a logo update for a Sports Car Racing team. The
car they designed is unconventional in such a way that the front axle
on the race car is extremely narrow, giving the car its distinctive Delta
shape. That shape is what I tried to make the logo mimic.
Process (Programs, Tools, Skills): I used Adobe Illustrator on a Mac
to create the logos. I created the car design by taking a rectangle
shape and adding points to it so I could manipulate the shape more
accurately.
Message: The Delta Wing is unconventional.
Audience: Racing fans familiar with the Delta Wing race car.
Top Thing Learned: Trying to make the logo look like the car was a
challenge. While I am nowhere near plagiarizing the logo, I didnt want
the logo to appear like I was taking the overhead view of the car and
copying it.
