Course Summary

During this class I learned quite a bit. There was a lot of new material/ideas presented to me and I feel that I have been made a better designer because of that. I had never had freedom to pick my own content for projects. I had also never had to actually get a project printed before.

I liked all the projects that we did but I think my favorite was the final project. It had some challenges but I think it went really well, and I was very impressed with my classmates' final projects.

I also really liked how my variable data project turned out, but not the headache of a process to get to that point.

So, all in all, I enjoyed this class very much, and if it was still being offered I would encourage a friend to take it. 

Final Project

I decided to make a save the date as my final project. It includes a vector, a duotone, and a grayscale image. The final folded size is 5 x 3.5 inches and it is folded in 3 places. To print 2 off to turn one in and cut out and fold myself it cost $1.83. 

This is the price if I were to get a thousand printed: 

• $422.19 
• Hammermill 60# Color Copy 11x7 white 
• Front: Color 
• Back: Color 
• Digital Copies 
• Cut to finish size 
• Fold (hand fold)
