week 2

Today we were commenced work of our first task which is due week 4. Using In Design we were asked to create a resume using 1 font, 1 colour and 1 page. Before we began Stuart provided us with the basic instructions we needed to get started and then presented us with this task, we were encouraged to make the resume as aesthetically pleasing as possible. The exercise enabled us to explore the program ourselves which I felt was a great way to learn as it allowed us to develop confidence operating the program far more rapidly compared to if we were provided with strict instructions.
Last week I mentioned that I would invest some thought into what kind of publication I will create using InDesign. After some thought I became enthusiastic about the notion of creating a film program or a movie poster, however I did have some concerns that the publication may need to feature more text than a typical film poster does. I consulted Stuart this week and he approved the film poster so I am now leaning more towards this idea.
This week I plan to complete the CV and decide on a theme of the film that the poster will be promoting.
