This flier is an invitation to graduate students who would like to learn how to
gain leadership skills to be more qualified for jobs.
Process
First, I sketched my layout on paper. Then, I completed the flier using the
InDesign program with the sketch as my guide.
I started out with a nice dark background color. Then, I added the photo and
gave it a circular shape to create visual flow. Next, I put in the text making
sure to group each set of information. Then, I added the line design to create
repetition. And lastly, I made sure everything was properly aligned.

Description
Three different logos and color schemes for a infant and toddler shoe company.
Programs
Illustrator
Process
First, I decided on a company name to conveyed the message of what the
company was about. I used the pen and circle shape tools to create the foot
logo. The pathfinder window allowed me to combine the shapes to make one
complete foot. For the foot shaped S I side clicked to create outlines that
allowed me to re-shape the S to resemble a foot.
Objective/Skills
To create 3 different logos for one company using 3 different color schemes in
the Illustrator program. The Illustrator program uses vectors which allows the
image to enlarge without image distortion.

Programs

Process
I used Illustrator to create a logo for Rexburg. I used Photoshop to edit the
brightness, color, and levels of my photos. And I used InDesign to create the
brochure layout. To make sure I had the correct measurements on my brochure

appropriate. Then I took the measurements from the paper and used the Ruler
tool in InDesign to mark my front, center, and back.

I designed a web page to showcase the logo I created and a description of the
logo creating process.
Programs
Text Wrangler, Illustrator, photoshop
Process
I used Text Wrangler to program the html and css for my web page. Using the
colors of my logo in photoshop I found the hex # for each color. I incorporated
each color from the logo into the web design to be consistent with the color
scheme. I used the blue as my text because I wanted the text to be dark
enough to read. I used the green as my background color, and the pink for my
heading 1 background color. I designed a polka - dot patterned background in
adobe illustrator.
Objective/Skills
To use Text Wrangler to moderate the html and css coding to design a
personalized web page. To save my html background pattern as a .png file to
make it readable for the web.

Description
This is an example of a business card with matching stationary.
Programs
Illustartor and InDesign
Process
In Illustrator I used the pen tool to create the shape of my logo. Since I wanted
it to be symmetrical, I designed the left side of the logo and then copied and
reflected it to create a symmetrical right side.
To create the color filled block with the curved line, I first designed the curved
line using the pen tool. Then, I made a rectangle the size I needed and placed
the curved line on the edge. I used the pathfinder tool to divide the curved line
from the rectangle. Then, I ungrouped the divided pieces so that I could delete
the side of the rectangle that I didnt need.
I dragged the logo and rectangle shape into InDesign to complete the business
card and stationery. I used the same logo for the business card and the
stationery to create unity.
Objective/Skills
Learned to create a professional business card using the correct sizes
Learned the appropriate opacity range for watermarks, proper size of stationary
heading, and appropriate font sizes. I also learned how to create a symmetrical
image. And I learned how to create a logo without image tracing.

Project of Choice
Description
I enjoyed the logo design project so much that I chose to do another logo
design for the project of my choice. I chose to do three logos for a potential
sewing blog. The butterfly represents the meaning of the phrase, fancy free.
Programs
Illustrator
Process
I wanted to incorporate the use of the paintbrush tool because I felt like I
needed more practice with it. It is a hard tool to master, so this project helped
me become more familiar with it. I used the paintbrush tool to create the
needle and thread. I used .25pt to make the paintbrush marks thin enough
to resemble the needle and thread. I also created the butterfly using the
paintbrush tool. I used the direct selection tool to adjust the shape. To create
the thread spool, I used the rectangle and circle shape tool. I overlapped the
shapes and used pathfinder to combine the shapes to make one. Then, I filled
it with color.
Objective/Skills
To create three different logos in Illustrator for a company without using image
trace. And to use the paintbrush tool to learn control and manipulation.
