Articles handed to the students of a school tend to be on colorful paper, have writing that appeals to the students. Rewards or incentives are often appealing but overall, I feel most articles handed to students are boring, lackluster, and are often packed full of too much information. In addition, too many clipart images can lead to disinterest by the intended audience. Too much information on a single page or images that are blurry or unrecognizable cause a distraction and leave the document worthless.
For a brochure, flier, or offer to be recognized and valued, the writing should be clear, have a single font, and lack confusion in its creation. Color is often a good way of gaining interest - this color can be in the paper or in the writing on the paper. The flier should clearly state the goal with as few words as possible.
For this assignment, I took an original flier for a cancer benefit. The students were to bring as much change as they could and they would earn a doughnut party at the end of the benefit. This is the original and the final product.
For the final product, I added color, made the writing easy on the eyes, removed all the unnecessary photos and changed some words for ease in understanding.
