+About Me

Colette-Janae Buck

+Experience & Goals

   Web

I primarily use the web for school work, Facebook and writing on tumblr where I use my basic code skills to edit and make changes to pre-existing tumblr layout html code.

 Design

Most of my design experience is through self interest and hobby work. I make graphics in my free time for my writings and works. I have only ever used photoshop, not InDesign.

  Career

I plan on working in publishing or related journalism fields after I graduate. Hopefully within a magazine or large scale News/Publishing agency where I can use my learned coding and design skills to help build a magazine. I also have an interest in computer technology so I may pursue that instead.

+Lab Projects

Lab 1

Lab one focused on the building blocks of HTML. It was the first of three labs that helped us build our class webpage to store our assignments. Click the picture above to see the Lab One home page.

Lab 4

Lab Four was the beginnings of a book cover. We had to choose two images, format them for both print and web and then create two front covers and two back covers before printing them.
This assignment was printed, so no link is available.

+Book Project

Lab 5

Lab 5 was a color lab where we explored color pallets for our book covers. Using the Adobe Kuler service we created different shade and pallets that we thought would compliment both of our book covers.

Envelope

Our envelope was kept simple with a patterned texture on both sides of the envelope, and the company logo in the top left hand corner.

PDF/ Letterhead

Our PDF is slightly different from our other materials because it is a preschool sign up sheet which can be found here. Our letterhead however stuck with the logo at the top design and used the patterned texture as the background of the letterhead.

Brochure

The Brochure also features the pattern trim and tells about the daily events and bulletins as well as offers welcome words and contact information.

Presentation

The presentation was made in Adobe InDesign and features the same textures as our other materials as a unification method.
