Experimenting with InDesign: Nicole Martinez

These are some initial documents using InDesign as I adjust to the software. I decided to present 5 graphic designers who I found interesting and present in a way which echoed their work. The task has helped me understand the basic tools of InDesign which will be the foundation for future, more advanced projects.

NICOLE MARTINEZ:

I chose to include the work of graphic designer Nicole Martinez as I enjoy the minimalistic and fun quality of her artwork. The lack of tone and three-dimensional quality awards the work with a cartoon like aspect; highlighting the qualities of the piece. I also love the consistency of style, although the subject of the work changes dramatically, all work remains noticeably in the typical style of Martinez's work.


I decided to focus of the minimalism of Martinez's compositions whilst still showing appreciation to  her work. Due to my intentions I chose to organise the pieces in a simplistic regimented order, whilst maintaining a white background as to not detract from Martinez's bold colours; this is the same reason I chose not to give the pictures any kind of outline. By creating this document, it has helped me to understand how to organise pictures and photos all to an identical size.
