Description

The purpose of this project is to design and layout a CD package. The components of the project include: A CD Front and back cover bi-fold case insert that includes an inside and outside spread. The back side also includes 1/4 inch folded spines for the sides of the case.

Beethoven was chosen as the artist, while Symphony No. 3 & Symphony No. 6 were chosen as the featured pieces of music. Using Symphony No. 6: "The Pastoral" as the design inspiration, two original photographs were used as the backgrounds on the front and back covers. The photos have been cropped and adjusted using Photoshop to fit the package dimensions. The spine background colors have been sampled from the photos for color family consistency. To provide the best contrast for readability, black and white were selected for text colors. The final package layout and design has been completed in Adobe inDesign CS3.

The final published work was laid out using the text and the text design modifiers available in Adobe inDesign CS3.

The project objective is to create a Menu for a fictional Restaurant named "La Nuit en Café Rouge de Satin". The restaurant is French and features a variety of classic dishes and bistro offerings. The charge is to design a menu that speaks both to the restaurants name and the food it offers.

A simple parchment paper design was selected to invoke an old world charm. An elegant photograph is woven into the title page for visual interest. For design consistency, Kuenstler Script LT Std was selected as the primary font.

This menu was a featured project in the HCC West Loop Digital Design Art Gallery in Houston, Texas. (2009 - 2010)

Photoshop CS4 is the tool used to process the menu cover image and create the illusion of parchmnet paper, with the design comp created using inDesign CS3.

The project is an exercise in understanding design and a balanced page layout. Using inDesign CS3 as the primary editing and layout tool, the article is re-designed with a modern/contemporay layout. The final piece demonstrates an understanding of master pages and how they work when creating a multiple page layout.

Importing text and images, applying columns and margins, adding auto page numbering, applying character/paragraph styles, and effectively applying clipping paths are some of the many techniques employed in this piece of work. The final result is a 21 page booklet.

The purpose of these posters is to attract and invite the viewer to engage and become more informed on this controversial legal and social issue.

The "For Poster": Invites the viewer to engage the truth as it has evolved since 1970. Should the viewer choose to research the topic, they would find the majority of people in the prison system are there for drug related offenses.

Is legalization, de-criminalization, or both, the best overall solution for the well being of our society and our country?

The "Against Poster": Attempts to engage the viewer to make a personal choice and use good sense. If this drug was legal, would you use it? As with all other legal substances, would you use this substance in a responsible and respectful manner; and one that speaks to moderation?
