brochure inside





For our brochure we did Roger Williams University Sports. We wanted to make it simple, but use lots of photos to show the roger williams atheletic experience.

On the inside, I designated each panel to either Womans sports, Mens sports, and the last panel i split up between Coed and Club sports. I did photo collages at the top of each panel of students participating in the given categories. I decided to do a light blue gradient because it looks nice but doesn't take the eye off of concentrating on the info and pictures in the brochure.

We used Gills San for the headline and Caslon for the info in the brochure because they were given to us on a list of "top fonts" that worked together. After tested about 10 of the font combindations, we liked this one best.

I don't think this brochure looks extremely professional or business like, but i think it works for the topic. We wanted it to look good for incoming students or students thinking about coming to Roger Williams in the future and playing a sport.

If i had more time, we probably would have coordinated the front and back a little bit more, but since we were working seperatly on the sides, we did not really have time.

concert poster





My user/reader is very broad because the bands fans range from around the ages of 14+. So basically, anyone who is interested in music and nightlife or entertainment and is in the las vegas area.

My audience is most likely interested in music, and in order for them to attend this concert they need to know all of the appropriate information. I included the name of the tour, the bands name, the date, place, address, time of doors opening, and time the show starts. I wanted to include where to purchase tickets but i didn't know if i should/should not put links to websites to purchase tickets on the poster.

I decided to be creative with this poster in order to pull in the audience. I thought doing playing card images would be a good idea and substiting the number or letter with the letters P H I S H. The cards matched the theme of being in Las Vegas at the casino. I chose to use gold red and black because cards are red and black, and gold looked good with those colors, as well as going along with the las vegas 'bright lights' theme.
