It contained a logo, and a brief message suitable for the type of communication. It must be published for universal readability, contain a logo, eye-catching typography, and be designed to communicate an idea or image. Supporting graphics could be either in a watermark, background image or to compliment the overall design. This assignment was linked within a webpage and provided information on the graphics, message, media choice and tools used. Rationale: Since I was using new software, I wanted to keep my product simple, so I chose to create a business card for my daughter to use in her free-time job. I created a blank business card, created a background and logo using shapes & line and added a design from the swatch libraries. I used photographs from Microsoft Online Gallery, resized, cropped and placed them on the card to draw your eye to the message. The monochromatic color scheme I chose reflect the sweet, fun, and happy person that my daughter is. The proximity and alignment of the objects help the viewer's eye to move around the card, and to understand the message and related information. I saved this card as a PDF file for universal readability and posted the web page including the information about the project. Implications for future: This is a great activity for students. Many of them have part-time jobs and need a way to advertise it, so this can stimulate immediate interest in the project. I would use this project as a way to increase their knowledge of design principles of desktop publishing and to give them a way to express their creativity and individuality. Adobe Photoshop, Pagemaker and Illustrator are great tools for this project, but it can be done using other application software if these weren't available. Reviewer Comments: "Awesome - very special card. Your layout and creative is very good. I am always impressed with what you create. Good job!!"

Can you recommend a computer system with video/audio editing and compression software as well as a camera?". What would you recommend I buy and why?" I then presented this report as A DTP document. Rationale: I chose this project to be an artifact because it is a good example of presenting information in a more interesting format- not just a word processing document. It is an example of what I've learned in 104 Desktop Publishing, even though it was created while I was in 205 Video Technology. Implications for future: Any time information is presented, the audience needs to be considered. Newsletters offer a format that is interesting and attractive to an audience. I have since created a newsletter to send out to my school district informing them about several gradebook programs we've been looking at. I will use this format more and more because it provides the audience with information that is attractive and easy-to-read. Reviewer Comments: "I loved your newsletter format, Jan. Super job of making the recommendation and supporting information is interesting and readable."

You have some great tips on all aspects of starting desktop video. I like the way you have it broken down." Reviewer Name: Lacey Hale Date Reviewed: April 28, 2003 Title: TATC Classmate |
