Wednesday, July 20

On Wednesday, I came into the office to take pictures of some brick samples. These pictures I then uploaded to the computer to be placed into our brick selections sheet.  This finalized our brick brochure for prior we simply had blank boxes that informed the clients that if interested they could view the sample here at the office.  The reason it was done this way was the vendor provided us with a website that had the brick images and there were two styles that for some reason were not offered so we had to improvise.  Once this was done I took the time to convert our take one brochure into Illustrator.  My boss then asked me while he was away to take the time to develop some new designs for the take one brochure.  I did simply as he asked and created 2 alternative designs to be reviewed once he gets back.  I think one ultimately stands out to me and is just the refresher that it needed.  I adapted it to have more images and less wording.  I feel pictures say so much more as we are taught in the classroom.  So much text is just boring and people don't want to take the time to read it.  Overall everyone in the office likes the new adapted version and so hopefully I can leave a mark behind additionally to the selections binders, and feel like I really contributed to the marketing needs of the business.  I feel that this would be something great to also add to my portfolio.  All in all the week is halfway through and I continue making progress on my list everyday.
