Newsletter- Florida Aquarium

Here is my newsletter. I did a front cover, Inside spread, and back.

Front. For the front i first created the shape at the top with the pen tool then inserted an image i took. Underneath the image i added a drop shadow and change the x and y coordinated of it to have it just drop in the center. I the added in the logo. For the owl image i used an a feathered gradient and drop shadow

Center.

For page 2 on the left i added the image i took to the background and changed the opacity. For the headline title i use bevel to create the look. I edited the image "swim with the fishes" in photoshop by adding a filter and them inputed it into InDesign and added a border around it. Same for the second image except for that one i added a drop shadow. For the shape at the bottom i use the pen tool to create it and added a satin effect. I used text on a path to have the text curve with the path.

Back

Here i also used pen tool to create the shape and added my image in that i edited in photoshop with filters. i used the drop shadow to create the blue underneath. I used the shape tool to create circles and rectangles and then used eyedropper tool to get some of the colors from the image at the top.

Overall i tried to explore other tools in InDesign. I worked in type and layout mainly to create the effects on my pages
