How to Make A Brochure

Brochures may be one of the oldest marketing tools, but they’re a tried and tested technique used by all sorts of businesses to reach potential customers.

A poorly designed brochure might be tossed in the trash, but a creative and beautiful one will be treasured and pored over and can directly lead to sales for the business.

In this article, I’ll present you with the ultimate checklist for designing brochures that are guaranteed to grab and hold someone’s attention. Read on to swot up on your bi-folds, tri-folds and everything in-between.

Decide on the kind of brochure you need—brochures are designed to be used as part of a marketing campaign and the brochure format needs to be perfectly adapted to the sort of campaign. Would a flyer work better for door-to-door? Would a tri-fold look great on display? Would a booklet be more appropriate for a convention or conference?

Allow for folds in your artwork—all brochures, except flyers, will need to be folded in some way. Because you’ll be designing your artwork in a 2D format, make use of mock-ups to test out how folds will affect your design.

Think outside the box­—Unusual folds or multi-purpose designs can make your brochure look unique and special, which will encourage readers to keep hold of it.

Be bold—strong, large-scale typography and bright, eye-catching color and graphics will make your brochure more visible from afar and help it to stand out from the crowd.

Adobe InDesign is your new best friend—for designing print-friendly multi-page layouts like booklets, you can’t go wrong with using InDesign.

Think about the practicalities—take the time to adjust the page count of your booklet, or to switch the orientation of content on a brochure that’s going to be folded. Again, using a printed mock-up can be really helpful to get your head around the tricky technicalities.

Understand your printing choices—paper weights and finishes, and post-print techniques, such as binding and folding, will affect the final look of your brochure and will have a significant impact on the cost of producing it too, so make sure you have an awareness of what you can expect before you approach a professional printer.

My Opinion of the English Class

From a few months I learned English from Miss Prima, I get a lot of new things. The concept of learning is good so far. And I have good grades. She already gave us many project, creative project and it taught me the important of not just learn from textbook and writing text. And i’m very thankful for the patience she gave for us. 

Although once i’m tired of her assignment ‘cause sometimes it’s too much. and i’m sleepy in class because i’m lack of sleep. 

But for all she really help me to understand english well.

HOW TO MAKE A SHORT FILM WITH PRACTICALLY NO BUDGET!

Making a short film with the availability of today’s technology has become a relatively simple endeavor for most people.  Assuming that you own a respectable computer, a digital camcorder and some kind of editing software, you are basically ready to go.  Add some decent actors, a simple script and you’re a filmmaker!

But, first things first; you will need a story.  Remember, most of what filmmakers do is to become a storyteller.  And if this is your first attempt at creating a short film, consider a comedy or spoof on a topic that isn’t too serious.  With the discriminating taste that has been acquired by most film viewing audiences, even on Youtube, it’s wise to leave the more sobering ideas to those that can spend millions of dollars telling their story.

Now that you have a basic outline for your story using the cast available to you, create a bit of a character for each role.  What is the personality of each character?  Do they have a specific way of speaking?  There are many ways to create individual characters for each role which helps when writing the final draft of the script.  But don’t get jammed here.  You might have friends that are really good actors and you have no idea.  Ask around; see who is up for the excitement involved in making even a short film.  Then work around what you have when writing the final draft of your script.  Don’t forget that although you might only have a few characters in your story, that there will be background actors required, set dressers (to create realism) and production assistants to help organize things during the day of filming.

Once all of the “pre-production” already mentioned is completed, now you are ready to start filming.  Make sure your camera battery is fully charged and that you have more than enough tape required for filming your short film.  Don’t worry about filming in sequence.  You might have to work around people’s schedules, so shoot out of order if necessary.  This can be fixed in editing.  Remember to be careful not to “cut” the scene pre-maturely.  Some of the best films were created during the “unscripted” moments.  Also, don’t forget to take close-ups and different angles of the same scene to have plenty of footage to use when editing.

Finally, it’s time for editing.  Hook up the camera and import the video into your computer.  Please note that these short films can take up a huge amount of space, so make sure you have enough space on your hard drive.  In your editing software, begin placing scenes in order.  You will notice, as you go along, that some scenes don’t work; that’s where editing comes in.  Choose another clip from that same scene until you find one that works for you.  Continue until the entire film is complete.  Word to the wise: try making a short webisode or very short film (5-6 minutes) before attempting a longer film.  You will discover that the experience you will gain even creating such a short piece will go a long way when shooting future projects.

Autobiography

An autobiography is the story of a person's life as told by that person. The subject of the story is also the author. Autobiographies can turn out to be just as fascinating as an imagined story. Let's look at more specific traits of the autobiography.

Characteristic of Autobiography

As already mentioned, the autobiography is the story of one's life, written by that person. Mostly, autobiographies are written in first-person point of view. This means that the narrator, or person telling the story, is also in the story. You can tell if a story is written in first-person if the narrator uses the personal pronouns I, me, and my.

Autobiographies are usually book-length, since the author usually covers the events of his or her entire life. Here are some examples of book-length autobiographies: 

I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings by Maya Angelou The Story of My Life by Helen Keller My Biography by Benjamin Franklin The Autobiography of Malcolm X by Malcolm X Long Walk to Freedom by Nelson Mandela
