It has been interesting to work on the three booklets and the resume. At first, it was all very overwhelming to have four different documents to work on. Then, I started to work on my booklets and used my resume as sort of a break.
Once I figured out the sizing for the margins, the page sizes, and the text, it wasn't as difficult as I thought it would be.
I did buy some paper at the Anchor Express paper shop, but I made the mistake of bringing it home and not having a big enough cutter there, but I still wanted to have some other dimension besides a flat piece of paper. The print shop previously specified that they needed a maximum of 48 hours to have a project completed, so I submitted mine last night and it will be done at 4:00 today. I'm going to bring it home and use the kind of sparkly card-stock paper I purchased and cut out the circle part from the sun and have that be an almost 3-D element.
I selected the circular part of the sun to only be cut out since it's the one thing that doesn't change on each booklet.
I really enjoyed this process, and if I were to change anything, the main thing would be to use the paper I selected at the paper shop for the cover and text paper.
With the resume, I don't have a ton of experience but I had the timeline be at the end of summer, because there were multiple positions that I could have potentially had (and a majority of them are actually confirmed now, so I'm excited to put some of those on there! I also just helped KTIS today, so I can put that on there, too). The color included was my favorite color and the style is something I would be interested in, but I think I'll create a few different types of resumes, so that certain ones can fit various places for various types of applications.
