This week, we were asked to complete the direct mailer drafts. Although I didn’t change the content of my projects, I chose to rearrange the layout and change the font color, size and the font itself. It was interesting to watch the overall image transform after thinking my draft looked complete last week. It was […]

Reflecting on my second design project
Alright, crossing my fingers, but I THINK I’ve finally got the gist of Photoshop. On the first week, I was very stressed about the second design project. I wasn’t fully capable of using Photoshop and eventually gave up. I made my first design project in Powerpoint, which was apparent to Professor Croom. After meeting with […]
Unit 3.3 Reflection
1. What were you asked to do? I am going to be very honest. This unit was tough. We were asked to create two direct mailers for a recruiting program at OU. I chose to do mine over OU soccer because I am pretty familiar with it and it is a sport that I enjoy. … Continue reading Unit 3.3 Reflection →
Reflecting on Lesson 3.3
I have to say, this was one of my favorite weeks! I really enjoyed getting to work more in depth with each of my direct mailers. This week specifically, we were asked to continue to work on both of our direct mailers. I was excited about this because I had a few things I wanted to change. With my first direct mailer, as well as my second, I needed to add an address placement. I also wanted to add why…
Direct Mailer: Final Product!!
Here we are at the close of another unit, and I’ve got to say that I am excited to be finished but it is official; I am a photoshop junkie. I have absolutely fallen in love with the software, think its so easy to use and think that it creates product that is not only … Continue reading Direct Mailer: Final Product!! →

I chose to create a direct mailer for high school senior girls who had been accepted to OU and might be considering going through the recruitment process. I was dreading creating this second direct mailer because I did not do… Continue reading Reflection on Second Direct Mailer
Direct Mailer: Second Mailer Reflection
Okay wow what a week! I had a design revelation this week when I found out that downloading fonts changes the universe/the entire premise and potential of your design #holla. I decided that I should focus my efforts with these mailers on having National Merit Scholars APPLY, not attend. Even though I think this mailer … Continue reading Direct Mailer: Second Mailer Reflection →
Reflection 3.2
My first stakeholder applies to students who would want a major in Gaylord college. My second stakeholder is for students with parents who are alumni/National Merit Scholars. These two go hand in hand because they both involve academics. I know when I’m an adult I will encourage my children to come here and join Gaylord […]
Direct Mailers
This week we were asked to design a draft of our second direct mailer for OU Recruitment. We used Photoshop again too. So here is how this project and week went for me. It went pretty well. The stakeholder for my first mailer was prospective students who have a least one person in their family… Continue reading Direct Mailers
Direct Mailer #2 Reflection
Another busy week in PR Pubs as we moved on to our second stakeholder. For my second stakeholder, I decided to target high school juniors and seniors from Oklahoma/Texas, who have been accepted into OU and have parents who are OU alumni. For my first direct mailer, my first draft hasn’t changed due to working on my […]
