Term Project: Book (Week 2)

Having a bit of computer trouble at home so I'm trying to finish things up on my netbook. Not workin' out so well. :P But I was able to at least post what I got done in lab. I will post the rest soon once things are back up and running at home.

Term Project: Book (Week 1)

For my eight page book, I will create a program for the Oregon Cabaret Theatre's production of The Wizard of Panto-Land. I'm not being payed for it (someone else is doing a simple one-piece program for the show) but I would still like to create some kind of mock-up as practice in the assumption that I may have to create something similar for them in the future. InDesign is a program I'm not very familiar with but is something I would like to learn more about as I feel it would significantly broaden my abilities.

In terms of the content I will use, the Cabaret always lends me a CD with photos of the cast taken by Christopher Briscoe. These photos are taken against a white background and are perfect for use with ads, posters, and rack cards. I've even used them to create the menu covers at the cabaret, so long as I give photo credit to Chris. For my program, I will have dozens of these photos to choose from. I was thinking of using them with text to give short biographies of the cast members (I may need to make some up) and discuss the history of the Cabaret briefly. For the history of the Cabaret, I'll need to take my own pictures. I'll do this once the Cabaret puts up my Wizard-themed OCT banner. They can't seem to decide if it's finished or not.
