fictional Communications company.

consistent layouts for a business card. Use the basic tools of Illustrator & InDesign.

Process: I started my making the logo in Illustrator by making a black background

and placing an orange square in front of it. I then placed a black letter G in front of it to make it appear as if the G was blending into the black background. I then pulled the logo into InDesign and made two 3.5 by 2 inch boxes to be my business cards.

Website
Description: This is a web page that I created using CSS and HTML to
represent the fictional company that I created for my business card and letterhead.

Date: March 15, 2013 Course/ Instructor: Comm 130, 02 - Eric Lybberts Program(s)/ Tools: Text Wrangler and Photoshop Objectives: Size and optimize an original logo as a .png for a web page. Write

content to describe the process of creating your logo and how it appeals to a target audience. Design a web page using HTML to display the logo and content. Acquire a working knowledge of HTML and basic understanding of CSS. Identify hex colors for web design. Compress multiple files in a zipped folder to attach as one file.

Process: Using Text Wrangler I edited an existing Html page and chaged the

paragraphs and lists to fit the format I desired. I then changed all the written text to be about my logo. Again using text Wrangler I edited an existing CSS page to match my logo. I then linked the CSS page into my Html document. The description of my logo is 221 words.

Photo Montage
Description: Thtis was my second little venture into Photoshop. Here I
learned how to blend images together.

Date: Februarry 14, 2013 Course/ Instructor: Comm 130, 02 - Eric Lybberts Program(s)/ Tools: Adobe Photoshop Objectives: Learn to manage Photoshop layers. Learn to blend images
together smoothly, using masks. Use filters. Apply appropriate typography.

Process: First I selected the background image and made it an 8.5 by 11.

Then using the lasso tool I then cut out a section from the second image and dragged it on top of the background image. Then using a maks and the paint brush tool I was able to make a gradual blend between the two images. I was also able to do this by changing the opacity of the inserted image and the opacity in the paint brush. I then added a Diffuse Glow filter to the inserted image. Lastly I used two text boxes to insert text with two contracting fonts into the image.

Logos
Description: These are a varity of logos that I created that could
represent my fictional Communications company

Date: February 23, 2013 Course/ Instructor: Comm 130, 02 - Eric Lybbertsv Program(s)/ Tools: Adobe Illustrator Objectives: Create a variety of logos to fit a company or personal image.
Use the basic tools of Illustrator.

Process: At first this project was really frustrating because I knew

nothing about Adobe Illustrator. But after I received some tutoring help it became really fun! I started by making the camera using rectangle tool with rounded corners to make the body and the button and flash for my camera. Using the circle tool I created the camera lens by making three circles that were slightly smaller than its predecessor. I alternated the circle colors between black and white to give it that lens look. I then, using the selection tool, moved the camera to the stem of the letter G to make it appear as if it were connected to the letter.

Pamphlet
Description: This is a pamphlet I made trying to help give myself or
anyone who reads it an idea of fun thing to do in Rexburg during the summer.

Date: March 30, 2013 Course/ Instructor: Comm 130, 02 - Eric Lybberts Program(s)/ Tools: Adobe Photoshop, Adobe InDesign, Word, and
Google Images.

Objectives: Set up and align a two-sided, folded document. Create an

original company logo and use it in a brochure. Incorporate quality images.

Process:

I found the images on Google and saved them to my project folder. I then placed two of them in Photoshop and using the selection tool edited out the sides of the picture to make a text wrap more attractive. I then opened an InDesign document placed rulers and guides where my folds were going to be on my document. I then created an attractive layout to try and display the many fun things that can be done this summer in Rexburg, ID.

Imaging
Description: This is my first venture into Photoshop. I captured the
image myself and then played with it.

Date: February 8, 2013 Course/ Instructor: Comm 130, 02 - Eric Lybberts Program(s)/ Tools: Adobe Photoshop and a Sony Camera Objectives: Learn basic photography skills. Use a digital camera to take

a quality image, then download it. Size and crop the image. Adjust image brightness, contrast, hue and saturation levels. Use a selection tool to isolate a portion of the image. Desaturate the selected portion of the image. Use a filter or colorize a portion of the image.

Process: I took my picture picture using a Sony camera that I rented from

the BYU-Idaho Library. I took this picture following the rule of thirds and getting a downward angle. I then took my image into Photoshop and cropped it to a 66 inch square. I then selected the background using the quick selection tools and desaturated everything but the statue in the image. Lastly I used the Textureizer filter on the background.

Event Ad
Description: This is a fictional ad that I created in an effort
to create an ad that would catch someones attention and hopefully persuade them to come. This one in particular was for a BSA charity event.

Date: February 1, 2013 Course/ Instructor: Comm 130, 02 - Eric Lybberts Program(s)/ Tools: Microsoft Word, and epson Scanner, and
PDF@JPG.net (PDF converter)

Objectives: Find, scan and import a high-quality image. Create a

ull-bleed design. Use text boxes for layout in Word. Insert and edit images in Word.

Process: I scanned my image into Word. I then used the publishing

layout to help me design better in Word. I created the boxed background by drawing boxes and using the color palette to create the blue boxes. I use a color dropper to capture the gray sky and color some of the boxes the same color. I followed the design principals of proximity, alignment, repetition, contrast, and flow to guide my design process.
