Creating files for print-
First you should establish an intent for your artwork, you can then use that to figure out key settings. You can name your document , you should change it to print if you are going to print the image afterwards. You can change the size of the page(artwork) size.Change your settings according to what you are creating, for example a business card is 3 1/2 inches wide and 2 inches tall. You can set your page size to be 2 1.2 inches for width and when you press tab, it automatically changes the height accordingly. You should change the raster effects to a higher resolution to get the best quality. on a day to day basis, you can hide the advanced settings and work with the basic settings. click ok and the new document will open.

Review for brochures.
Brian Perez-
The brochure's customer review was a little hard to read. The red on light pink and that font could have been a bit different . I really liked the picture collage that he created on 3 of the brochure pages. It was very creative and he used his pictures very well. i also liked how he labeled the breakfast lunch and dinner pictures, it shows some examples and would attract the customer.
Demarco Sanchez-
The brochure Demarco designed had a lot of empty space and on the cover page, he could have added a bit more, for example a image related to the brochure. The page that was supposed to engage the reader into joining was a bit lacking, the font should have been more engaging and a different font size would be suggested. Same font and size could have been used/ less stretched out images. i liked how the logo was cut out and instead of it being black on white, it was more creative. The schedule is very organized and it can be easily read by someone wanting to know the times for classes.
