Term 1
Magazine Ad
I was assigned to make a magazine ad. I had to look through magazines and look for a something to advertise. I chose Neutrogena Oil-Free Acne Wash. I cut out a picture of this product and others words/pictures that I thought would corespond with it. Then I glued them to a sheet of plain white paper and colored the backround around it to make the product and the other words and pictures stand out.
Walk for Breast Cancer
I had to create a flyer to show when and where an event was. What I did before making this flyer was I had to choose or make up an event that I wanted to put on the flyer; I chose a walk for Breast Cancer. First, I went into Microsoft Office Publisher 200 7, went to Blank Page Sizes, and choose the Letter (Portrait) 8.5 x 11”. Then I used Word Art for the title and inserted a text box for the information about the event. I then added some pictures to make my flyer more presentable. During this assignment I learned how to use Microsoft Office Publisher 2007 and how to save the document as a picture to put up on my Weebly website.
Thayer Street Project
I had to make a brochure on Thayer Street. My class went on a field trip to Thayer Street and we were each assigned a category. I was assigned women’s apparel. I had to walk up and down Thayer Street looking for women’s apparel stores. When I got to the stores I had to record the name of the store, the types of clothing they sold, the hours the store was open, and the store’s website. For this project I used Microsoft Publisher to create this brochure. On this brochure I had to put a cover page and five stores; Urban Outfitters, Zuzus, Second Time Around, Berks and City Sports. I added pictures and shapes to make my brochure more appealing. I also tried to use different fonts and colors to draw my 'audience's eye'.
