This project has had the intention of showing the capacity to go beyond straightforward solutions. I became familiar with different printing techniques, created digital workflows, edited pictures, and became used to the restricted amount of Pantone colors. I expressed my ability to create this hand-held 16-page booklet with a mind map to guide my process of elimination for the noun Fish. This booklet was created using programs like Adobe InDesign, Adobe Illustrator, and Adobe Photoshop. The finished book is 5 x 7 inches (10 x 7 inches flat; 15 x 7 inches with infold). To see the photographs that served as the basis for this project, see my Dropmark here.
