Event Ad
Description: One page event ad
Date: May 14, 2016
Course: Comm 130-03, Ben Pingel
Program: Microsoft Word
Objective: Learning how to create a flyer in Microsoft Word.
Process: The goal for this project was to create an event ad for
an activity. It could be any activity, and needed to have a sponsor
or a charity that would benefit from the event. The ad needed
to include what, where, when, why, and how much it would cost.
Learning how to do the skills that I used in Photoshop in Microsoft
Word was an important aspect of this project. It is necessary to
know how to use both programs.

Description: Rexburg Farmers Market advertisement
Date: July 9, 2016
Course: Comm 130-03, Ben Pingel
Programs: Adobe InDesign, Illustrator and Photoshop
Objective: Sketching and creating a tri-fold brochure.
Process: The first step was sketching my design to determine
what I wanted my design to look like. I set up the margins next
using ruler guides to ensure that my folds were in the correct
position. I cut out the background of one image and wrapped
text around it, I also created a logo to use for the Farmers
Market. Lastly, I pulled all of my designs together with a color
scheme in InDesign.

designs with the logo.
Process: I sketched my ideas on paper first, so that I could see

drew the Hersheys Kiss in Illustrator and copied it for the letter
o in chocolate and for the background of the last logo.

Christ of Latter-day Saints.
Date: May 28, 2016
Course: Comm 130-03, Ben Pingel
Program: Photoshop
Objective: Combine two or more images in Photoshop and add
an inspirational quote.

Photo Design
Description: Get involved with intramural sports.
Date: May 21, 2016
Course: Comm 130-03, Ben Pingel
Program: Photoshop
Objective: Chose a color scheme and take a picture. Then
create flyer for an event that revolves around the picture
that I had taken.
Process: First I took my roommate to the BYU-Idaho stadium
and had her kick the soccer ball around for a while. Once I looked
at all the pictures, I decided that this one would work best for
my chosen message: to get involved in intramural sports. I used
the tools in Photoshop to add the text and the colored boxes
for my color scheme.
