Process-
This process took a fairly long time. First on InDesign I setup the layout
(trifold) that I wanted. Then I went into Illustrator and typed Drum Corps
International, behind this I put a green rectangle and 20 thin white rectangles
so the rectangle behind the words would look sort of like a football feld.
I then went to google and searched for four different images and en capture
the essence of DCI, that being one of the fnals lineup, colorguard, brass, and
percussion. I then put the image of the fanls line up and put it as the inside of
the brochure. I took the brass and percussion photos into Photoshop and put
out just the main players. I took the colorguard photo and masked it so that the
background would fade into black.
On the inside I put a green rectangle and made it so it would blend into the
photo. I then put part of my body copy onto of the rectangle. For the Front I
simply typed Drum Corps International then put the cut photo of the trumpet
player. For the inside fap, I put the rest of my body copy and then text wrapped
it around the percussionist. For the back, I put my logo, then under that the
image of the colorguard and information at the bottom.
