Welcome to episode 4 of Layout Design Bootcamp where my goal is to take you through entire design layouts to show you the exact process of how it’s done. In this fourth episode, I continued to implement the brand of “Dreamy Doughnuts” that I developed in Logo Design Bootcamp Episode number 4. I decided to design a product advertisement that you would find in a magazine or loose in a newspaper that shows coupons for limited time deals. This tutorial will teach you so many things including:
- Sizing Your Layout
- All aspects of the pen tool
- Masking In Photoshop
- Altering Image Colors
- The Pathfinder Tools
- Creating A Coupon Effect
- Creating A QR Code
- Brand Continuity
- Superimposing
- Creating Balance
- and of course…..much more!
Question. Why did you duplicate the word “deals”? I can’t figure out how that affects anything. Thanks! …for all you do.
Suzanne, I duplicated it and added a white stroke to it and sent it to the back. This was to ensure that when I added the white stroke on the original word deals, that it did no eat away at the letters. Then when I added the drop shadow you were able to see the stroke appear.
thank you.it was really helpful
