W. 10-17

SUB ~ open Top Dog Flyers here, or from my Handout folder.  Also open the file we started yesterday named Top Dog.  Create the other “Corporate” flyers as shown in my handout.  This would be pages 4, 5 & 6.  You should use layers to get background colors, etc.  and to get the order correct.  Continue to following dates if done.

Trevor & Elva--we did the first two flyers together Tuesday...you can start that first.  Ask someone if you need help.

R 10-18

SUB ~ Continue yesterday's assignment.

Additions:  Page 8, 10 & 11 from Top Dog Flyer examples.  I realize you won't have exact match on fonts, but come close.

Hints to help you get the look...

Page 8—the top was created in Elements—saved with a transparent background.  Then placed into InDesign.

Page 10—the illustration was found on www.Veer.com under illustrations …however, I’ll put it in my handout folder AND here -Weird Dog.  You will need to get rid of the background in Elements. The white splashes are just created with the pencil tool.  The B & L in my name have the vertical scale adjusted taller. 

Page 11—The top headline has been stretched with vertical scale.

The side text was typed on a pencil line (stroke eventually set to no color).

Add extra page to your file if needed (Window, Pages Pallette, new page)
