Apparently I'm 7/8 of the way done with college. Scary, right?
One of the classes I took this semester was Visual Strategies in Public Relations. Using Adobe InDesign CS4, we created a save the date, invitation, and poster for a non-profit of our choice. For our final project, we created an 8-page brochure.
I literally spent hours and hours working on this. In total, I had eight drafts of it. You would not believe all of the little things that go into each page! Since I had a hard time finding high resolution photos to use, instead I drew the mountain motif to use as the defining element of my design.
Below is what I came up with! Click "view in fullscreen" to see the bigger version.
Sidenote: I got a 100 on it! My professor was a pretty tough grader all semester..so I was shocked, and relieved after putting so much time into it.

Hi Lauren,
I was missing your blog! I am so glad you started it up again. Your brochure is just beautiful. I especially like the page colors. I also liked your choice of non-profit. I used to work with a blind woman and I am not sure if she skis but I think she hikes and bicycles. Amazing! I was thinking of you when I was in San Francisco because we had dinner at an Ethiopian restaurant and I was wondering if you ever went to Adam's Morgan to get some Ethiopian food. (Of course if you have and you told me about it, I would have forgotten.) I also enjoyed reading your speech for the National Honor Society. I liked the part about starting small. I am sure when you were staring at those spreadsheets you wondered what you were doing there. Good for you for being so persistent. Not only that but you are courageous. I am proud of you cousin!
Love, Michelle
