00:00:06.800 --> 00:00:10.590
Okay, so now it's homework time, but not homework.

00:00:10.590 --> 00:00:14.660
It is class exercise time and I'd love for you to go through and do this.

00:00:14.660 --> 00:00:17.040
Now when I'm running my in-classroom training,

00:00:17.040 --> 00:00:21.120
I find this is the most valuable part of the whole experiences,

00:00:21.120 --> 00:00:22.620
instead of following me step-by-step,

00:00:22.620 --> 00:00:25.125
you'll run into problems and be able to fix them yourself.

00:00:25.125 --> 00:00:27.765
Now, like I do in my classroom training, I've got a checklist.

00:00:27.765 --> 00:00:29.600
I'd like you to do all of these things, please.

00:00:29.600 --> 00:00:31.710
Set aside, it's a little bit of time now,

00:00:31.710 --> 00:00:33.270
15 minutes, 20 minutes,

00:00:33.270 --> 00:00:35.880
it might take you an hour depending on how fast you're picking it up.

00:00:35.880 --> 00:00:38.475
But nicely, you get to do this at home at your own pace,

00:00:38.475 --> 00:00:41.270
so go through and do every single thing on this list,

00:00:41.270 --> 00:00:42.380
and when you're finished,

00:00:42.380 --> 00:00:45.085
you can use this thing in your portfolio you have permission,

00:00:45.085 --> 00:00:48.880
you can use this in your portfolio and say this is something that I've made and it is.

00:00:48.880 --> 00:00:51.500
What I'd also like you to do is send me a copy.

00:00:51.500 --> 00:00:54.020
You might follow this verbatim and that's totally fine,

00:00:54.020 --> 00:00:56.495
just want to see that you've done it, send it to me,

00:00:56.495 --> 00:00:58.670
depending on where you're watching these videos,

00:00:58.670 --> 00:01:01.940
often there's a comments or a class exercise part.

00:01:01.940 --> 00:01:06.965
So stick it in there. Either the PDF or JPEG version or even a screenshot,

00:01:06.965 --> 00:01:08.450
and just walk you through those lists.

00:01:08.450 --> 00:01:10.900
Let me quickly help you with what you need to do,

00:01:10.900 --> 00:01:12.140
is a new document easy,

00:01:12.140 --> 00:01:14.510
but in that new document it needs to be a US half letter

00:01:14.510 --> 00:01:17.415
or A5 depending on which part of the world you are in,

00:01:17.415 --> 00:01:19.615
needs there a bleed of three-millimeters

00:01:19.615 --> 00:01:22.810
or an eighth of an inch depending on what part of the world you're from,

00:01:22.810 --> 00:01:24.865
facing pages can be turned off,

00:01:24.865 --> 00:01:26.185
we're going to make it landscape.

00:01:26.185 --> 00:01:28.520
I want you to create your very own new library

00:01:28.520 --> 00:01:31.240
for this client here called Green Gardner, call it that.

00:01:31.240 --> 00:01:32.445
Add the brand colors,

00:01:32.445 --> 00:01:34.650
you'll see that in your exercise files,

00:01:34.650 --> 00:01:36.840
they are there, there is something called,

00:01:36.840 --> 00:01:37.880
so an 01 Flier.

00:01:37.880 --> 00:01:39.545
There's one called Class Exercise,

00:01:39.545 --> 00:01:42.560
and in here, IO Colors, there's the Colors there.

00:01:42.560 --> 00:01:45.140
There's the checklist that I'm reading through now as well.

00:01:45.140 --> 00:01:48.605
You can read through it on your own time if you don't want to pause this video,

00:01:48.605 --> 00:01:50.465
and here is some other bits,

00:01:50.465 --> 00:01:52.940
this is the finished file that you can see in the background here,

00:01:52.940 --> 00:01:56.195
so you can use that as an example if you get lost.

00:01:56.195 --> 00:02:01.175
Other things you need to do? Add those brand colors and add them to your CC library.

00:02:01.175 --> 00:02:05.495
You need to use a logo that's in there and one of the images there's three to pick from.

00:02:05.495 --> 00:02:08.180
You can use your own, that's totally fine.

00:02:08.180 --> 00:02:09.775
You can use your own logo, your own colors,

00:02:09.775 --> 00:02:11.095
I'd love you to do that,

00:02:11.095 --> 00:02:13.690
but if you just want to charge on and finish them,

00:02:13.690 --> 00:02:15.970
you can just use the example stuff.

00:02:15.970 --> 00:02:17.740
Your image needs to be cropped like this one,

00:02:17.740 --> 00:02:20.605
it's a lot better and we've cropped it down using our special tricks.

00:02:20.605 --> 00:02:22.520
I want you to make the heading uppercase,

00:02:22.520 --> 00:02:26.035
I would like you to put a dashboard and we used a dotted one earlier on.

00:02:26.035 --> 00:02:28.290
Create around all, around all was a name of this

00:02:28.290 --> 00:02:30.690
like this little round thing with ticks in it,

00:02:30.690 --> 00:02:33.500
so I want you to create this with a perfect circle,

00:02:33.500 --> 00:02:35.390
I want you to group these two together,

00:02:35.390 --> 00:02:37.235
I want you to rotate them around.

00:02:37.235 --> 00:02:39.140
Then I'd like you to save and name your file,

00:02:39.140 --> 00:02:40.675
maybe using the V1,

00:02:40.675 --> 00:02:42.680
and I'd like you to create a PDF with

00:02:42.680 --> 00:02:46.715
crop marks and then send me a vision of it, I'd love to see it.

00:02:46.715 --> 00:02:48.140
Now if you get stuck with anything,

00:02:48.140 --> 00:02:51.350
please drop me a comment or go back through the previous videos.

00:02:51.350 --> 00:02:53.640
The previous videos will cover everything we've done in here,

00:02:53.640 --> 00:02:56.135
if you do get lost though and you're not too sure,

00:02:56.135 --> 00:02:58.570
drop me a message and I'll give you a hint.

00:02:58.570 --> 00:02:59.855
Now, I promise you,

00:02:59.855 --> 00:03:02.600
I've been teaching InDesign for about 12 years now,

00:03:02.600 --> 00:03:05.615
and it's the people that actually take the effect and do these like

00:03:05.615 --> 00:03:08.930
little extra examples are the ones that pick it up the most.

00:03:08.930 --> 00:03:12.260
Following me step-by-step is awesome until you run into problems,

00:03:12.260 --> 00:03:13.745
so go ahead and do this one,

00:03:13.745 --> 00:03:15.830
send me a screenshot, send me a sample,

00:03:15.830 --> 00:03:17.510
even if you don't just keep it on your side,

00:03:17.510 --> 00:03:20.540
keep it for your portfolio, but make sure you do it.

00:03:20.540 --> 00:03:24.940
So let's go on to the next project. Exciting.
