Yesterday, we had to do a mock-up of a business card based on a folding dummy we were given. It was about 6.375"x 2" and if folded vertically a little off the center (2.75" to be exact). It was a fairly easy job and the vector I used was a crown that I put on top of my initials. On the inside of my card, I briefly highlighted that I dabble in video production along with graphic design and a little photography. On the inside it says "film, shoo,t edit, photoshop, indesign, illustrator" it's a quick and easy way to tell you what programs I'm versed in. (side note: the photos are in jpg because blogger doesn't like things like pdf's)
Here is the front page, just a simple red on black with my initials on the front.
Here is the inside. Like I mentioned it quickly tells you what programs I know how to use and what kind of multimedia I primarily utilize.
The card is a 6.375"x2"trim with .125 trim and bleed.The text was a font that was manipulated in illustrator and turned into a vector for ease of use between InDesign and Illustrator. I saved two copies of the file and rotated them individually in illustrator so there are no complications during print.
The crown was also manipulated in illustrator and only illustrator so there would be no troubles. Since I used a vector from a previous assignment I knew that the elements would be ungrouped, it will be in CMYK and that it was at 300ppi.
