MONTAGE
Instructor:Bem Pingel
Course: Communication 130 Section 4
Date: October 24, 2015
Program(s): Adobe Photoshop
Description: For this assignment I was to make an inspirational
image from two separate images that are blended together. Also using
typography to add to the feel of the project.
Objective: My first objective was to find high quality images on the
internet and site from where I got them from. My second objective was
to understand how to use layers and masking in Photoshop in order to
create the blending on the edges of the individual layers.
Process: I first started by coming up with my message that I wanted to
portray. I decided that I wanted to use Christ and exemplify that He
is the Light of the World. I took the picture of the candle and resized
it until it was in the right position then placed the image of Christ over
top using layers and masks to blend and shadow so that the candle was
lighting Christs face. I then added the typography. I felt that the bottom
right hand corner needed something more so I added in the picture of
the earth again with masks and layers.

PHOTODESIGN
Instructor:Ben Pingel
Course: Communication 130 Section 4
Date: October 17, 2015
Programs: Adobe Photoshop
Description: For this project I was to take a personal photo and edit it in
Photoshop then add typography later.
Objectives: My first objective was to learn how to use the rule of thirds
when taking photos. My second objective was to learn how to use hue,
saturation, sharpening, and bluring in Photoshop to edit a photo.
Process: To begin with, I decided to use the a complementary color
scheme with red and green. I took a picture of one of the apples on my
apple tree in my backyard around 4 pm since this photo already had
theses colors. I then added the red and green lines and found the font
choice that I felt best conveyed my message.

LOGO
Instructor:Ben Pingel
Course: Communication 130 Section 4
Date: October 31, 2015
Programs: Adobe Illustrator
Description: This project entailed creating a new original logo for either a
real or fake company. It was required to have a color version, a grayscale
version, and a white on color background version.
Objectives: My objective was to learn how to use Adobe Illustrator to
create a new logo and then transfer that logo to the three required color
settings.
Process: I decided to do a logo for my fathers construction business. I
chose an orange and blue complementary color scheme because I felt
those colors best represent stability and innovation. I decided to put on
B backwards as to draw attention to the design. I added the roofline to
represent construction so that customers would have a better idea of what
the business was about.

BUSINESS CARD
Instructor:Ben Pingel
Course: Communication 130 Section 4
Date: November 6, 2015
Programs: Adobe Illustrator, Adobe InDesign
Description: For this project I was to make an original logo and business
card for either a real or fake company. I chose to make one for my
personal business, Memries Melodies.
Objectives: My objective was to be able to create a new logo and base a
new business card off that corresponding design.
Process: Since I already knew what my business was, I chose a harp
as my logo. I didnt want to make a complicated logo as harps can be
complicated instruments so I decided I would do a minimilist design on
the harp so it would be easily recognizable but wouldnt clutter such a
small space. Then I chose my color scheme for the rest of the card and
placed my text in corresponding locations to enhance the design.

LETTERHEAD
Instructor:Ben Pingel
Course: Communication 130 Section 4
Date: November 6, 2015
Programs: Adobe Illustrator, Adobe InDesign
Description: For this project I was to take the same logo from the
Business Card project and create a letterhead that matched the business
card.
Objectives: My objective in this project was to learn how to transfer
similar designs over to a letterhead from a business card.
Process: Since I already had the logo and the color scheme, as well
as the font choices, I flipped the logo and placed it on either side of
the information for Memries Melodies. Then I modified the contact
information so that it looked professional and centered.

BROCHURE
Instructor:Ben Pingel
Course: Communication 130 Section 4
Date: December 5, 2015
Programs: Adobe Illustrator, Adobe Photoshop, Adobe InDesign
Description: For this project I was to create an original logo for a
company and then create a brochure advertising for that company.
Objectives: My objective in this project was to learn how to create a
brochure in InDesign while using coordinating pictures, colors, and at
least 250 original body copy.
Process: I chose the company Grand Targhee Resort and to advertise
for their snowboarding experience. I chose my color scheme as orange
and blue and then found pictures that incorporated that color scheme.
I then wrote my body copy that I wanted to put in the brochure. Then
I designed the logo that I felt was a good fit for Grand Targhee Resort.
I edited the fireplace project to give it more of an orange and blue color
scheme. I added text wrap around the fireplace and placed the body
copy and images together until I had a cohesive feel.

WEB PAGE
Instructor:Ben Pingel
Course: Communication 130 Section 4
Date: November 21, 2015
Programs: HTML, CSS, Photoshop, Adobe Illustrator
Description: For this project I was to make a web page for one of the
businesses that I had chosen using one of the logos I had created.
Objectives: My objective in this project was to learn how to use HTML
code to write a web page that I wanted and then link that page to CSS to
add color and font choices.
Process: I first had to download the proper program in order to code.
I then wrote my body copy, my title, and my web page heading. Then
in Photoshop I found the right colors of purple and trasnfered those
hex codes to CSS in order to create the right color design that I wanted.
I then added the corresponding purple bars to add some flow to the
design.

EVENT AD
Instructor:Ben Pingel
Course: Communication 130 Section 4
Date: October 9, 2015
Programs: Microsoft Word
Description: In this project I was to take a photograph or scanned
image and create an even ad with it. I had to have a benefactor and a
beneficiary. I also needed a place, date and time.
Objectives: My objective in this project was to learn how to create a
quality project just using Microsoft Word. Everything in this Ad had to
be created using Word.
Process: My image that I used is a personal image. I wanted to do a
tribute to my dog who had just died the previous day. Since this picture
was taken in the mountains on a trail I decided that is what my event
would be. I chose the brown and blue because they are complementary
colors and both of these colors can be found in the photo. I created the
dog prints in Microsoft Word, as well as the signpost. I also edited the
picture in Microsoft Word.

Description: In this project I was given the body copy information and a
selection of photos to choose from. It also had to be in grayscale.
Objectives: My objective in this project was to learn how to use InDesign
as I had never used it before. I also needed to apply the FOCUS
principles that I had just learned.
Process: To start, I chose the picture that I thought would be show my
message the clearest. I put the title across the top and then added two
more gray bars to keep the flow similar and inspire unity. I then added
the black boxes offset to also create more unity. I shrunk the body copy
down while keeping the important titles large enough to draw attention.
