Programs/Tools Used: Adobe Illustrator Date: 11/02/2013 Course/Instructor: Comm 130 Section 02 Julie Peterson Objective: Learn how to use the basic tools of illustrator. Create a variety of logos to represent a company. Process: First I started by adding in the title of the company. I centered the lettering and changed the size of the bottom word. Then I took the rectangle shape and placed it behind the text and changed the color to gray. Then I used a symbol that looked like branches coming into the square. I place the symbol in between the text and the rectangle. I then changed the text font to white so it would contrast with the dark background.

I then the name of the company on the right tab that would appear next to the front of the brochure and added a black triangle behind the text to make it stand out.

After that I added rectangles around my images and text boxes to add flow, contrast, and a color scheme to my brochure.

Process: I used HTML/CSS web programming to create this page on the TextWrangler application. I used HTML to mark up all the content on my page. Then I attached an already made CSS document to the HTML. My logo was a simple black color but I wanted a color scheme to compliment it and I felt blue did just that. I opened Photoshop and used the eyedropper tool to locate the code behind each color and placed those colors into my CSS. Then I changed my fonts to Trajan Pro 3 and Helvetica. Just in case those fonts werent available, I had backup fonts placed in as well. Then I made sure everything had good proximity and distance from the edge of the web page and saved my work.

Once the logo was completed I placed it inside an InDesign document and placed it in the top left corner. I then created a dashed line underneath the logo. My next step, was to add my name on the top right corner above the line and to add my contact information below the line. I colored my name green to match my business card. Then I added the logo again without the text in the center of the brush strokes. After placing the logo on the page, I enlarged it and reduced the opacity to create a watermark.
