Newsletter - San Jose Sharks - Class Project

This newsletter was created for a class project at Chico State.

Assignment: Create a 4 page newsletter for an organization of your choice, using only 2 colors.

I created an 8 page newsletter for the 2006-07 San Jose Sharks Season Ticket Holders. The newsletter was designed as an end of season thank you to the fans and to recap the season. The two colors I used were black and teal. All stories and news is true, and written by me.

The pages are below on 4 spreads.
1st spread: back and front covers
2nd spread: pages 2 and 7
3rd spread: pages 3 and 6
4th spread: pages 4 and 5









Below is the memo which accompanies the newsletter. The newsletter is written from an "account coordinator" at a Public Relations firm to Doug Wilson, the General Maanger of the San Jose Sharks. Graham Associates contracted with the Sharks to help with the newsletter.

Advertisement - In N Out Burger - Class Project

This advertisement was made for a class assignment at Chico State.

The assignment was to take a position on cloning cows, use an existing company and create an advertisement with your position.

I chose to say "no" to cloning cows, and use In-N-Out Burger as my company. Every thing at In-N-Out Burger is fresh and natural, so why would they want to use cloned cows?

Other students used companies such as Ben and Jerry's, Outback Steakhouse and Horizon Organic.

Brochure - Crest - Class Project

The Crest brochure I created is a six panel, die cut brochure with a tear off coupon. The full color brochure was designed for a class assignment. The assignment was to create a brochure of any size and shape for a specific ethnic audience and have a behavioral objective. The audience I chose was African-Americans and the focus was dental health. This brochure has two behavioral objectives: 1. to have families use the $3 off coupon and 2. to educate African-American children about the importance of good oral health.
Below is the two page brochure spread. The tube of toothpaste creates the die cut.
Following the brochure, is the memo for the brochure which explains it in more detail.
