M4 Design Competition Part 2

International Compost Awareness Week Poster Design

 

 
Modified version.

 

Brochure Layout

Done mostly in Indesign but some elements were done in Photoshop and Illustrator. It ended being alot more complicated than I thought because of the fold compensation. I made 6 pages(dividing 3 pages from 1 actual letter size page using measurements found on UniversalPrinting.com on their template page) then formatting 3 pages together, creating registeration marks and slug notes where the folds are. 

 

 





Here is my final design. I traced the city image and repainted it, a little more stylized. I learned about saving selections, which I hadn't known before which was a huge time saver for me. I also created a selection mask for the middle plant. I decided to go with a sketchy hand drawn version of Compost, I just couldn't find anything that had the feel I was going for. I decided to a misty air around the swirl. I played alot with levels. then working back and forth into illustrator, was amazing when I reworked the file in Photoshop and saved it , then went back to illustrator it would update it. 

For own sake, I am now putting together a brochure in INDesign and will have that ready in a day or 2
