Task 4
Brandon Parker
3x3
• After trying my first page layout on In design I changed the images and
text that I was using in order to try different styles of layouts by varying
the columns and gutters on each one but by using the same pictures and
amount of text I can see the affects better and see how id need to change
each part in order to make it work and keep it at a high standard, because
with some of the dimension splits I would have to change the size of the
image and without disrupting the dimensions of the original picture I
could edit them on Photoshop so that it is still at its peak condition
without looking blurry or over stretched. I also refrained from using new
styles and techniques with color or text as I just wanted to see the raw
affect each different attempt had on the page layout.
• From the 3x3 layout I feel this looks the nicest as I didn’t have to change
any of the picture dimensions and the text look neatly presented and was
evenly spread although just having a 3x3 doesn’t allow for you to be to
creative so although it might be my favorite it isn't the strongest out of the
many I have attempted.
5x3
• From using 5x3 it although gives a good finish as the text looks evenly and
well divided even though it isn’t real text it look good to be evenly spread
the pictures also are well fitting and the page overall gives a good looking
clean finish. With the picture I have as the header works well because of
the size as they are evenly split across the page and works well with the
columns and the margins.
3x3 – Using 10mm Gutters
• This is the exact same as the 3x3 that I did first but I changed the size of
the margins between each row to see what affect it would have, it creates
a lot more white space I feel if there is enough text then you don’t need
them any bigger than 5mm as it still looks well distributed and well
presented.
3x8
3x8 – Different columns
• For the first 3x8 that I did it worked well although I had different
dimensions of the text as it didn’t split three ways equally across 8
different columns and gutters, so even though it looked okay I still felt It
cold look better so I decided I would change the split of text and try having
four smaller columns, even though it wouldn’t fit as much text it still
worked and looked good, I had the picture on the bottom come across two
columns as it then looked even and I could of either have to more rows
next to it or I could have it as one chunk again spread across two columns
worth and with this I felt worked a lot better as it looks for parallel and
gives it a cleaner looking finish although if I was to use this styled page
layout then I might change it to have two columns depending on word
count and if it looks better one way instead of another.
