A tour booklet of Houston showing landmarks and locations that are wonderful destinations for tourists.  This booklet was a final project for a production control class

 

These business cards were created in InDesign using Step and Repeat.  The first set of cards contains personal information, while the QR code links to the College of Technology homepage.  The second set of cards includes a picture of myself, personal contact information and the same QR code as the previous set of cards.  The QR code was created using the QR code generator in InDesign.

This National Geographic project includes Variable Data Printing created using XMPie in InDesign.  The variable information includes the title of the person, first and last name, address, and photograph.

This document shows measured K values and calculated density from an image of myself. I calculated the density of the largest K value using the Density formula.  D=Log(1/r), where r is the reflection.

This is a demonstration of different typefaces.  It includes examples of Type Styles, Type Series (which gives examples of font sizes), type families, and paragraph leading using different type, type size, and leading.

This Dot Gain document was created to show the difference in dot gain in a grayscale photo.  The document contains pictures of classmates, one being an original grayscale with 0% dot gain, while the second picture is the original picture adjusted with 20% dot gain.  The photos were adjusted in Photoshop using the Convert to Profile option, selecting the gray option, and adjusting the dot gain in the drop down menu for grayscale.

These notepads were created using a notepad template in InDesign.  The template was then changed to include personal touches such as compliments and email, as well as the last line being changed to red.  A QR code was included, which links to the College of Technology homepage when scanned.  The notepad design was then deplicated with Step and Repeat seven times to fit eight pages on a single tabloid page.

This National Geographic mail advertisement was created according to "customer" requirements.  The text was taken from a Microsoft Word document and formatted to fit the advertisement document.

Stargazing was a fantastic project that involved making a booklet for a celebration.  I created the blue on the front page using a gradient, while the stars were created using the polygon shape tool in InDesign.  The font and text was changed throughout the booklet, with mock guest names added.

This project was created in InDesign to show the difference in Halftone Terms.  Each page contains examples of the type of dot being used, the lines per inch, and the angle of the Halftone series.

Special Effect Halftones involved taking a cropped photo, and using different effects and adjustments in Photoshop.  The original photo was put through nine different adjustments, some of which include Posterization, Duotone, and Grayscale.

This document shows the difference between the way that vector and bitmap images are rendered.  The vector image shows smooth, non-pixelated lines while the bitmap image shows pixelation throughout the lines of the cougar.

This document involved taking the picture and text, and filling certain areas using the paint bucket tool while trapping the colors.  Separations included in slide show and PDF.  Four color separations included in slide show and PDF.

Representations of Under Color Removal (UCR) and Grey Component Replacement (GCR) can be seen in this document.  The flamingos represent the effect of UCR and the two boys represent the effect of GCR.  Four color separations included in slide show and PDF.

This document was created to represent manual and application level trapping.  Separations included in slide show and PDF.

This document shows different printing profiles applied to an image of flowers in a field. I adjusted the saturation and curves of the photo to enhance the red of the flowers. The difference of profiles can be seen from coated versus uncoated.  The coated paper profiles show more vibrant colors versus the uncoated profiles.  Four color separations included in slide show and PDF.

This document shows circles filled with CMYK colors using the paint bucket tool in Adobe Photoshop. Below the circles are corresponding color measurements.  In addition the black lines surrounding the circles is colored black, while the registration marks are colored registration black.  Four color separations included in slide show and PDF.
