Brochure
Description:

This is a bi-fold brochure with a tab that I created to give more

information about genealogy and what it is.

Date:

March 28, 2015

Course/Instructor:

Comm 130 - Visual Media - Ben Pingel

Program(s)/Tools:

Adobe Illustrator, Photoshop, InDesign

Objectives:

Create a custom brochure that would appeal to a more mature

audience and explain what genealogy is and how the presented
company, Family Tree, was involved with it.

Process:

First I created a brochure layout in Adobe InDesign. Then I

created a new logo using Adobe illustrator. Then I added in the
various images using Photoshop whenever needed to create
the right effect. After creating the layout that I wanted I added
in text boxes and information regarding the company. I used
color picker to adjust the colors so that they were consistent
throughout the entire design.

Letterhead
Description:

Letterhead for a soups and salads business.

Date:

February 28, 2015

Course/Instructor:

Comm 130 - Visual Media - Ben Pingel

Program(s)/Tools:

Adobe Illustrator and InDesign

Objectives:

Create a letterhead for a new restaurant that wants to portray

their restaurant as upscale with a modern feel.

Process:

After completing the complimentary business card that went

with this I used elements from it and transferred them to Adobe
InDesign, where I created the letterhead. I watermarked the soup
bowl in the background to make writing more visible. I also used
the double ss in the top left corner to bring the readers eye to the
start of whatever would be written.

Flier
Description:

Event flier for a graduate leadership conference hosted by Vount

Communications.

Date:

January 24, 2015

Course/Instructor:

Comm 130 - Visual Media - Ben Pingel

Program(s)/Tools:
Adobe InDesign

Objectives:

Reach out to recent college graduates who are interested in a

professional future marked by an ability to lead others.

Process:

I created several hand sketched outlines to formulate an overall

design. I then used Adobe InDesign to create a digital version.
In the design I created a logo using part of the title Graduate
Conference and shapes to create a key. Underneath the title I
bolded the word leadership because I felt that it was the most
important part of the titles message. Underneath this title I
created an outline of a door with a lock around a photo. The idea
is that the graduate conference being hosted is the key to these
graduates leadership development and professional future. I
used some black bars on the right side to break up the text and
make things easier to scan over. I also used a lot of white space to
highlight the key elements of the message.

Business Card
Description:

This is a web page I created to showcase a logo that I created for

an event called The Color Bash a local party held in Rexburg,
ID.

Course/Instructor:

Comm 130 - Visual Media - Ben Pingel

Program(s)/Tools:
Text Wrangler

Objectives:

Create a web page to showcase a custom logo that I created for a

local event hosted in Rexburg, Idaho.

Process:

To begin this process first I created a logo using Adobe

Illustrator. To showcase the logo that I designed I created this
web page using Text Wrangler. This is an HTML web page with
css styling. So, after creating the HTML web page I linked it to a
css style sheet. I then changed the padding and margins as well
as the color schemes to make the page more visually appealing. I
also wrote in the process of creating the logo and how it appeals
to the target audience of students attending BYU-Idaho.

Logos
Description:

Three different logo designs for the same company.

Date:

February 21, 2015

Course/Instructor:

Comm 130 - Visual Media - Ben Pingel

Program(s)/Tools:
Adobe Illustrator

Objectives:

Create logos that expressed that Color Bash is an exciting and

colorful party for college age students.

Process:

Using Adobe illustrator I created three separate logos. I created

the first logo by using a text that I fond using dafont.com. I
played with the colors first to find the right feel and I added
some kerning to the letters to make them more legible. I also
worked with the alignment of the letters to make everything
more visually pleasing. On the second logo I worked to create a
logo that would be easy to recognize and I wanted it to say color
without having to use words. I created the various bubbles of
colors to convey this idea. For the last design I worked to create
an image in illustrator that would relay to an audience an even
better idea of what color bash represents. I created a digital
representation of colorful sound to show this.

Montage
Description:

A spiritually uplifting montage created out of 3 separate images

and simple text.

Date:

February 14, 2015

Course/Instructor:

Comm 130 - Visual Media - Ben Pingel

Program(s)/Tools:
Adobe Photoshop

Objectives:

Show the story of Christ from birth to death to His resurrection.

Process:

I added the background scene of Jesus Christ on the cross. I

then added the image of Marry and baby Jesus over the top. I
added a mask and blended the two images together. I then added
another image of Christ but as he appears in an image of His
second coming. I used a filter to overlay the image above the
part of the clouds that the sun was shining through. I changed
the background image levels, vibrance and brightness to make
the light appear to shine from Christ. I also moved the cross in
the background down some so that Christs death did not appear
more important than His resurrection. I then added in a simple
elegant text that did not take away from the message. I overlaid
it as well and blended the 3 images further to make sure they fit
well together.

Photo Design
Description:

Take an original photo and edit it in Photoshop using a specific

color scheme.

Date:

Course/Instructor:

Comm 130 - Visual Media - Ben Pingel

Program(s)/Tools:
Adobe Photoshop

Objectives:

Create a picture with an uplifting message about friends for

women ages 35 and up.

Process:

I grabbed an appealing photo with a solid color scheme using

a canon sx50. I then used Photoshop to enhance the photo
and bring out the colors in the picture. I changed the light and
dark levels, made it more vibrant and enhanced the colors. I
think created text boxes to relay the message to the viewer. At
the end I included color swatches to show which scheme I was
incorporating.

Event Ad
Description:

Event flier for a seminar hosted by The American Heart

Association to raise awareness for cardiovascular disease and
encourage donations.

Date:

January 31, 2015

Course/Instructor:

Comm 130 - Visual Media - Ben Pingel

Program(s)/Tools:
Microsoft Word

Objectives:

Persuade those who view this flier to attend a seminar and donate
to the American Heart Association to help save lives.

Process:

I wanted to use a simple design to create a flier that I feel like I

would see around campus. I chose to work with an image of a
heart from the cover of a book (the heart that creates the logo
at the bottom right of the page). I pulled colors from that work
to create continuity. In the beginning I assessed my audience
and I decided to create a Valentine Day theme work because of
the popularity of dating and courtship on the campus and the
approaching holiday. I also placed the message to donate in the
center of the heart to create the idea that donations come from
the heart.
