Unfortunately I could not attend this lecture since I had severe chest infections. Over the following week I caught up with what was done in this lecture.
We started a new software – Indesign. Since I have never used this software before, I firstly had to learn the layout and the basics of this software – guides, coloumns, masterppages, baseline grids and how to insert images in the document.
REFLECTION –
Today i learnt the main,basic elements of Indesign, how to operate it and the similar features of it to photoshop and illustrator. I also learnt the tips and tricks of how to make my work more efficient and easy by using text snap, alignment and arrangement. It also acts as a helping hand for me to create new designs.
For my first piece, i made an advertisement for the cosmetic brand BUXOM.
- I chose a pink backdrop for this piece since it depicts the new lip gloss collection of the brand.
- Shay Mitchell was recently appointed as the Global Creative Brand Ambassador of Buxom hence i chose her as the face of this advertisement.
- I kept the font Minion Pro for the very reason that it is classy and simple.
