Christian Kinch's Brochure

Christian's brochure was very informative. it showed all the interesting things you can do at the Jacob A Riis after school program. I also liked how he put a picture of Jacob A Riis himself and explained who he was ect. The problems I had with his brochure was that the text was very hard to read because of the close comparison to the background color and the text color. Also I would have liked to seen more photos of the program and activities done with in the program. In all I think Christian did a nice job of getting his points across.

a Photoshop-InDesign Reflection



When I was working with layers I learned how to get rid of layers so I work on certain parts of an image on Indesign or a brochure.

Vanishing points help me take specific areas in an image and edit them with out accidentally ruining other parts of the image this could be very useful while making a brochure.

Learning how to use warping will help me have a more professional aspect when doing my brochure also, it will give me a more flexible way to present my clients logo ect...
This lab helped me understand text in InDesign more and showed me different ways of representing or focusing on key points in text.

Narratives.


Project 1
For the first project we had to make a collage about what is important to us, although I didn’t finish it I really enjoyed it. It refreshed my mind about the world of photoshop.

Project 2
For this project we had to make a logo, I didn’t really understand this lab for some reason and ended up making an anti-drugs ad. I had a lot of fun making this project.

Lab 1           
For Lab 1 we had to go outside and take picture’s we needed a minimum of 10 photo’s we then went inside and added effects to the images.
                                                                        

I didn't finish my narratives.
