Creating an anti-smoking leaflet.

Identify The Welsh Assembly in Cardiff are going to start a big campaign to try and deter young people from starting smoking. It also wants to try and get people to quit smoking. For this campaign they will be making leaflets to promote anti-smoking and depositing them in different places like community centres and schools. The assembly has asked me to design a leaflet providing information to young people to young people about the dangers of smoking. This is part of their policy to let young people design the leaflets because they feel that they will be more in touch with other youngsters and will design leaflets which will be more appealing to them. The 'user' in this task will be the Welsh Assembly. They have to be happy that the leaflet is good enough to be reproduced professionally and given out around the country. I could produce this leaflet manually, e.g. handwritten with pictures stuck on but that would not look very professional and would take a long time to produce a large quantity of them. Also it would be difficult to correct any mistakes done while writing the information out. I could produce the leaflet on word processing software such as Microsoft Word XP because it will let me type in the required information and add some images and graphics. But I will produce this leaflet on publishing software such as Microsoft Publisher 2000 because it will give me a

Dear Auntie Gladys and Uncle Jack,

64 St Andrews Avenue Pelsall, Walsall West-Midlands WS3 4EW 31ST January 03 Dear Auntie Gladys and Uncle Jack, As usual, it was a wonderful surprise to hear from you once more. It honestly made my month, I enjoy talking to you and receiving very helpful tips for my future education. My education standards are higher than ever before, you will be pleased to know. My D.T (design technology) teacher as encouraged me to do further GCSE courses for example: graphic designs. Although this is a great opportunity to increase my learning level it is also one more thing to worry about, I have no idea what to do. My friends and I, are at the top of the class for this subject but my biggest ambition is to become a barrister. Having a graphic design GCSE grade will not help me to become one so I think it could be a complete waste of time. Although on the other hand, if I fail at becoming my dream then I have something to fall back on such as a clothes designer or other interesting creative occupations. I am trying extremely hard to make my dream into reality. Christmas has always been my favourite season of the year and this year it was a great success! I had everything I wished for and much more. Thankyou very much for my money, it added up nicely in the bank. There is only one problem every time I put some in a couple of weeks later I take it back out. I shall have to stop

The task is to create some sort of form that will capture the relevant data from the people who fill it in. Consequently, people fill it in after collecting it in the shop, or at other shops...and then we get members, which leads to rentals, and money for my Uncle. The data capture form will be an A5 piece of paper, and will have all the relevant fields needed to input a new customer into the list. In this task, I will have to use boxes that are the same size and ones that are big enough to fit hand written letters in. In addition, the boxes will need to be straight, or it will look incompetent. Moreover, to create a professional look, it will have to be a small form, two per A4 sheets, because one per A4 sheet would be rather large, and extremely clumsy. Additionally, to reduce incompetence, I should align the boxes singularly, so that every box is in line perfectly. For each field I will need the correct number of boxes: * Title = 4 boxes * First Name = 16 boxes * Second Name = 16 boxes * House Number = 12 boxes * Road Name = 16 boxes * Town = 12 boxes * Postal Code = 4 and 3 boxes * Home Phone = 5 and 6 boxes * Date of Birth = 2 and 2 and 4 boxes * Password = 16 boxes Software Requirements The software I choose must be able to: * Import pictures, so that I can put use my created logo publicly. * Create input boxes, so that they can be filled in

My objective is to promote a package for a newly formed company. I will be producing a handbags company, which will be called 'Noble & Wild'.

Introduction My objective is to promote a package for a newly formed company. I will be producing a handbags company, which will be called 'Noble & Wild'. What inspired me to choose a handbag company was actually my father. This is because he used to have a business in that trade. My company will be world-wide, which will attract the young female group aged between 18-30, as the bags produced will be used as a fashion accessory. I will produce designs for: > A logo for the company > A suitable business card > A appropriate letter head > A introductory leaflet to show the client what services the company offers Logo research This logo has not got a border around it, but it still looks Neatly presented. There is a bright colour used for the Font, which catches your attention. Aswell as a name Used there is also an image included in the logo. I Personally do not like the colour used for the font, as it Is too bright. This logo has a very dark background. The font used in this logo is curved and really thin. It is a really basic colour, which contrasts well with the background. It is neatly presented. I like the idea of the border around the logo, which keeps the name of the company in place. This logo is completely different from the other logos that I have chosen. There is different size fonts used which immediately attracts your view. The

My project will be a promotional package for a newly formed company. It will be a food company, which produces top quality traditional Chinese food, e.g. moon cakes, ¡¥waxed sausages¡, etc.

Section 1 Introduction Introduction My project will be a promotional package for a newly formed company. It will be a food company, which produces top quality traditional Chinese food, e.g. moon cakes, 'waxed sausages', etc. This project will consist of making a logo for the company, a business card, a letter headed paper and an introductory leaflet. The logo will be designed with iGrafx Image; business card will be designed with Microsoft(r) Publisher; letter headed paper with Microsoft(r) Word; and an introductory leaflet with Microsoft(r) Publisher. The logo should give customers a general idea of what the company is and produces. The logo will also be used all the way through my project to indicate that they are all about the company. Logos from existing Chinese food companies may be used for getting some ideas for my logo, and I will use the Internet to find some examples. Pictures will be used in the leaflet to attract readers. The leaflet should have simple text to allow readers to read through it easily, using Franklin Gothic Book as the text. It should have 3 to 5 pages, consisting of the main achievement of the company, products of the company with brief descriptions (certainly with pictures of the products next to them), and at the back of the leaflet will have contact numbers and addresses of the company, web site address (if available) and also with the

Desk Top Publishing coursework girl scouts leaflet

IDENTIFY Background Miss Darling is the president of a girl-scout group called the Green Peacocks. The Green Peacocks was established in 1960 by her grandmother Mrs. Darling. This club was created to teach young girls between the ages of 5 - 16 years the usefulness of friendship, teamwork and training. The club is located in North Finchley. Statement of the problem At the moment, the Green Peacocks are attended poorly because of the insufficient equipment and facilities and advertisement. This is because the leaflets are hand-written which is boring and hard top understand. Most of the time, people throw the leaflets away because they don't understand the writing and think it is too boring. This year she wants me to create a leaflet containing the aims, activities, places visited and the awards achieved at the end of each year. Consideration of Alternate Solutions . A leaflet could be designed and written up by hand and then photocopied and handed out to people. This leaflet would contain all the necessary information but the problem with this idea is that the information may not be clear and the leaflet will be very unattractive. 2. A word processor could be used to type up the leaflets as well as insert graphics and fancy headings. This solution will be better than using freehand and it will look more professional. This solution is not as good because this computer

Evaluation - produce proposals for the possible re-branding of my school

Evaluation My design brief was to produce proposals for the possible re-branding of my school. When doing this I researched what the faculties wanted and needed and so I designed a questionnaire to gather the information I required. I also researched different graphic designers, their work and various design movements throughout history such as Abram Games who is a British mid-twentieth century designer and official war artist during world war two. His style of design is very patriotic as in most of his work he uses red, white and blue; the colours of the union jack. He incorporates them very well and subtlety. I like his work because it's very classic, memorable and simple. His work is landmark. I did this because it gave me inspiration, an influence and it offered a look at how previous designers worked. I did web searches on the images connected to different faculties and just asked people what images came to mind when I said a faculty name this provided me with many logo ideas. In addition I looked at existing logo designs in books wherein designers explored many different techniques, which I could use in my designs. I had many specifications that determined what my final design would look like. * Such as my target group, which was the staff, pupils and parents because of this I had to select designs that satisfy and do not displease them. * In my specification I
