The Brief

The UNV Regional Office in Panama project team were looking for volunteers to support their communication efforts. A key project was to complete the production of a publication in time for an event.

The Task

Given the tight timeline, I was tasked as the designer for the publication. Working along with the project lead and proofreader, I drafted the designs and worked on the revisions. Once approved, I prepared the files for final artwork.

Task highlights:

  • Used Adobe Photoshop to edit the photos for print.
  • Used Adobe InDesign to layout the pages and content.
  • Did QA to check on page quality and content accuracy.
  • Ensured the document was in 300 DPI resolution, CMYK color mode, and have bleed areas.
  • Close communication with Panama office despite timezone difference.

The Outcome

The project was successfully delivered to the client for their use, including copyrights to the artwork and content.
