Note that these examples do not necessarily meet the guidelines in your grade sheet. They are here for reference purposes so you can see what some of these things might look like (real publications). Follow your specific guidelines as you work on your projects.
Before starting this project, visit this website to see what a cruise is really like. It will help you get some perspective when creating your projects. And, it’s fun to read! Cruise Ship Site

Create a “4 panel” long fold boarding pass holder. Print on one side only (inside will be blank except for the fold up area). Use a letter sized page setup. The inside of holder will require that you fold up the bottom. Watch the bottom 5” of the page as this will be the fold up pocket area. Anything placed in that area should be rotated 180 degrees. Only use the top 6” for content. You may wish to cut off the left hand “pocket” or you could use both pockets. Feel free to cut/trim creatively.
NOTES: Normal letter sized portrait paper. Page setup with .2” margins, 2 columns, .4” gutter. Then, add a ruler guide with 5 rows, 0” gutter.
Some Helpful Things for You Nice designs (various DTP items) Dance class information/descriptions: (suitable for newsletter project) NOTE: When creating tables in InDesign, you must first draw a text box and be in (double click in) the textbox. Then, the Table menu can be used to insert a table with the correct number of rows/columns and at the correct size (indicated in the instructions) |
