FINAL PROJECT REQUIREMENTS

OVERVIEW:

The entire booklet should be layed out in InDesign. Specific elements will be brought in from other applications and those will be detailed in the instructions.

Page 1: Cover
Page 2: Table of Contents (TOC)
Page 3: Write-up and Bio
Page 4-6: Article Layout
Page 7: Ads & Company Logo Design
Page 8: Back Cover Poster/Ad

When you've finished, you must package your files and include a PDF in spreads. All fonts and links must be included.

PAGE 1: COVER
The cover will include pieces created in all 3 applications, and then placed into your InDesign file to create the cover. Items to be included:
- Magazine Logo: You may name your magazine anything you choose. A logo must be created in Illustrator and must be named MagazineLogo.eps so I can find it easily in your files. You may "place" the logo into InDesign OR pull it into your Photoshop file.
- Cover photo and background: You must create this part in Photoshop. Find a high res photo of a famous person to isolate, and place on a separate high res background photo or texture that you bring in. Save your file as Cover.psd so I can find it easily in your files.
- Cover lines: These can be done in your Cover.psd file OR in InDesign. Cover lines are in a Word Doc in the Dropbox link provided.
- Date: Please place the date "Spring 2018" somewhere.

PAGE 2: TABLE OF CONTENTS (TOC)
You must include your magazine logo and date at the top, the text provided in the Word Doc in Dropbox, and a photo or two that relate to the articles. Do a Google image search for "magazine table of contents design" or something similar to get inspiration and layout ideas. Text is not required to be in columns for this.

PAGE 3: WRITE-UP AND BIO
You must do a write-up on your final project to be included on this page. It should be a minimum of 250 words on the rationale of your design choices throughout your entire project. You must also do a brief bio on yourself, minimum of 100 words. This should be quick and easy
- tell me your name, major, year, career goals and something fun and interesting about yourself. This page should include at least a photo of yourself and should also be designed in an aesthetically pleasing way. Do not just slap some text on the page - DESIGN IT so someone
would want to look at it and read it. You may use any additional images or graphics that you wish. Have some fun with this page.

PAGES 4-6: ARTICLE LAYOUT
Please use these pages to create an article layout. Text and choice of images are in the Dropbox link. Here are the article specs:
• Columns: 3, gutter .25"
• Font size for main body copy should be 9pt and the leading should be 11pt.
• Each paragraph must be indented .25" with exception of the first paragraph.
• A drop cap is required in the first paragraph.
• Any text wraps must have at least .125" of space around it.

PAGE 7: ADS & COMPANY LOGO DESIGN
There will also be two ads placed on page 7. One of them must be the PDF of the 1/2 page size of the ad you created last week. The new ad you must create will also be 7.5" W x 4.75" H using the text within the Dropbox link and your choice of high resolution images or vector graphics. You must also create a new logo in Illustrator for the company listed in the ad text and it must be used in the ad. (You may either create the graphic on your own, trace something, or use vectors found online as part of the logo.) It must be named CompanyLogo. eps and must be included in your Dropbox. Create the new ad in a separate InDesign file, make a PDF, then place the PDF into your final project file (do NOT place the InDesign file!). Put a 1pt black stroke around each ad.

PAGE 8: BACK COVER POSTER/AD
Create a full page poster/advertisement for an upcoming event on this page. You may create it in any application or combination of applications you choose. The required text is in a Word Doc in the Dropbox link and you may pick your own high resolution photos from Google images.
