Nicole - Brochure & Pocket Folder
For the pocket folder I decided to relate it to the brochure just for consistency. Let me know how you feel about the logo on the front cover with the large stroke around it that allowed me to put it over the blue green shape.

Farns_EaglePress Brochure update
Good Evening Class!
Heres an update of my Brochure. I subtracted A page out, for I was cautioned about having A competitors list in my brochure. The colors I included are 1 process color, manufactured ink from Letterpress should be. I was thinking either leaving the brochure as it is or adding 2 more pages. The two extra pages would show 4-6 images of the staff that works at EaglePress and the other page Gutenburgs quote, by removing it from the "Why US" page. Any feedback?

Eleni - Roto Pocket Folder
Hello again! So I'm having trouble deciding on pocket folder designs, so I'd appreciate to get your opinion.
Option 1: Although I want a contemporary, clean look, I feel like this might be too simple?
Option 2:

Option 2:
Option 3: For this layout, I had trouble figuring out how to make the logo shape in the center look good on both sides of the folder, so I ended up just cutting the other side so it only appeared on the front cover. I feel it might look a bit awkward like that however.
Eleni - Roto Brochure Process
Hello all! So I made a couple adjustments/changes to my brochure.
Cover: To make the logo on the cover more united with the photo, I finally put some color into the logo, but I'm not quite sure if it's the right color I'm looking for. I tried to match it with the color overlay I put for the photo that is going to peek through the front cut-out.
Inside: For the inside right page, I added some of the half-circle shapes from my logo around the circle cut-out pictures to unite it more. The black page on the left will have the cut-out shape from the front, that is why it is blank.
I still need to add my company's contact info but I'm not quite sure where to put it. I was thinking of putting it on the front cover, but I'm not so sure. Please let me know what you guys think and any other suggestions you may have.

Nicole_Finalizing Brochure
Hello all, I'm just tying up some lose ends with my brochure so I wanted to get some opinions. My cover only has my name and logo on it, to me it looks a little plain, any suggestions as to what I could add? I wanted it to look simple on the front so the whole brochure wasn't filled and busy, but now its starting to look different than I was hoping. Let me know what you think!

Farns_Brochure First draft
HI Class!
I'm sorry if the photos here came out distorted, I did save them as A jpeg at high quality, but as you can see from the layout, Heres my start off of what I have planned for my brochure. Before I forget, i'll be placing the contact under where Johanne Gutenberg quote is. The textured type thats at low opacity is more of the common letterpress type most people use today. I figure this type would go in the back of the brochure since I think it would cause a distraction near the body copy.
