6-2 Milestone: Comparing Tools and Features Draft
12176Overview
In Module Six, you will submit a draft of your work on the Comparing Tools and Features section of the project template. For this milestone, you will use Adobe Photoshop, Illustrator, and InDesign to complete specific design tasks using a provided design, capture your results, and then explain your experience.
Prompt
For your draft of this part of the project template, you will complete the design tasks indicated using the sample posters (Photoshop Sample Poster, Illustrator Sample Poster, InDesign Sample Poster Folder) and the software application they were created in, and document the tools you use and your experience with those tools.
Specifically:
Complete six specific design tasks in each of the three software applications: Adobe Photoshop, Illustrator, and InDesign. Then, compare the tools and software applications for their suitability to each specific design task.
To begin, download the Photoshop and Illustrator poster files and the InDesign folder so all the items are on your computer before you make any design changes. Note that the three sample posters are identical, but each was created in a different software application (Adobe Photoshop, Illustrator, InDesign).
Then, complete the following tasks for each of the posters, using the software application each poster was created in. You will end up with three posters, one for each software application. Be sure to save your work after completing each task, so you do not lose work if the application or computer should freeze and need to be restarted while you are working.
Change the background color to one you believe is more appealing.
Remove the last “Sponsored by:” item (mouse with cheese in bottom right corner).
Move the remaining three “Sponsored by:” items so they are evenly spaced across the bottom.
Add a drop shadow to the circle with text.
Add a text box above the picture of cheese using the following content: “Thousands of different varieties of cheese: cow, goat, sheep, yak, camel—even reindeer and horse.”
Replace the picture of cheese with any cheese-related image of your choosing.
Identify which tools in each software application you used to complete each of the six design tasks, and describe where the tools are located. Refer to the menu or tab you used to find the tool and the name of the tool. For example, you might explain that you used the Photoshop Color Replacement Tool on the flyout menu of the Brush Tool in the Tools panel to complete the task “Change the background color.”
For each of the six design tasks, explain which tool and software application you found easiest to use in accomplishing the task and why.
For each of the six design tasks, explain which tool and software application you think had the best result and why.
