Week 11 - 1st draft printing, pros and cons

This week I tried out the printing for the brochure to find out what can I improve more on it. The picture below is the result of the brochure. First of I should actually pick a thicker material so when the pull tab is pulled, the pages will flip more smoothly. Next is the is any of the pages with color background need to be expand, also call bleeding in printing, so when printed out, there wouldn't be white line at the sides. I have limit the amount of information and pages so that the output will not become a booklet instead. I would also be changing the colors of the font for each section so it will be the same design as the pull tabs design.

Week 10 - Content and design

This week I started on searching and putting the right content for the brochure. Because there is so much of information about poverty, I had to narrow down some of it and categorize these content into different section that will be in the brochure. I have categorize the section into: facts, types, countries affected by poverty and using the different colors to differentiate the pages.

After many weeks of searching for tutorial, I finally found one that gives the measurement for the waterfall brochure, all I have to do is measure my design based on my design on an A4 paper folded in half. The bracket numbers are the pages number that will be for the waterfall, and the bottom left paper with the cross line drawing would be the pulltab. So far, I have already finished the rough design for the entire brochure, I would be proceeding to print the design on the actually brochure material to try out and see what are the pros and cons and figure out whether it could be improve more on later.
