Building Brochures

While around 75% of my time at the internship went into the Annual Report, I also worked on building brochures when I had the chance. The previous building brochures were very old and unprofessional looking. They were all created randomly from someone in each building, so there was no consistency between the documents. Plus, most of the clip art used had to have come from the first version of word! When all these brochures were displayed together at the district office, it gave off a very unprofessional look. They definitely needed to be updated and I came at the perfect time for it. The grades that were going to be in each building were getting altered, so the content information needed to be updated along with the document design.

I created the new brochures using Microsoft Professional for two main reasons. First, because I wanted to get more exposure to the software (you never know what my future job may have available). Second, because the software is more user friendly and all of the building offices have it on their computers. This would easily allow buildings to make future edits on their own, such as schedule or program changes.

On the inside of the brochure, the content varied from one building to the other. But on the front and back of the brochures I created a consistent layout among them all. I will bring come copies to class for viewing and feedback.
