BiBi Card - Quark and Photoshop

Well, this is one project that I did not enjoy at all, and found it completely pointless, and made me wonder why would I ever need to make a subscription card. But made me laugh because I thought of Shiebler, and realized I'll always think of him fondly.

Ok non-the-less. Design rationale time. I know it was said that many people believed photoshop to be the easier of the two programs, I personally found Quark to be much easier and much better looking once I got the hang of it, granted it took me about an hour and some assistance to get the hang of it. The thing I liked most of all about the product was the actual finished product itself. The thing I hated was when the programs wouldn't cooperate with me, therefore frustrating me. But like I said, I was extremely excited when I got the grip of quark because it was MUCH MUCH MUCH easier than photoshop. I think alot of the people in the class said photoshop was easier because we had been spending so much time working in photoshop. I didn't expect quark to be as easy as it was. I was very frustrated on the white sides of the card in both programs because I couldn't make the lines on the right side to be all the same size or resemble each other at all, which also got quite frustrating.

Through this entire project the only time I enjoyed myself was when I was working in quark. Which surprised me because I was petrified of a new program. I tend to be a person against change, but this change was completely for the better. I feel that I learned alot, and will be able to use quark in the future for future tasks in life. (no trying to suck up - I actually mean it) The time difference in making these were photoshop about 1 1/2 hours, and quark 45 minutes. granted the time actually went by pretty quick.The photos attached are my finished products. My first two are my photoshop ones, and I took the screen shots of my finished product in the quark layout this way you had the proof that I actually did them in quark. Thank you for a great semester !! and happy holidays!!

Bristol 4th of July - Group Work

In this project, each member of the group had their assigned tasks. More often than not however, we worked on one computer in putting ideas and working together to make a good final product. There are certain tasks that each of us were assigned, that may have been altered in our final project but as a unit my team and I worked cohesively. Every person had input on every part of this project. There is a little bit of Devon, Ryann, and Marianne in every element. I can't personally take credit for an specific part. I was assigned to do the poster, and I made the outline for the PSA. I did the sound for the PSA, and helped work on all the different parts of the project. I can creative design rationale on almost all of the aspects of the project, as well as article ideas for the brochure and newsletter. My other team members also helped me with my parts of the project.

Pictures enclosed are pictures of the brouchure, my part in the original power point pitch and some slides of the PSA that I put together, though they were later altered afterwards.
