Rollover Button

To create a rollover image/button, You need to use a program call Adobe Dreamweaver. I used Adobe Illustrator to create the two buttons, the one that you see without the pointer over it and the one that you see when the pointer

goes over it. When I was done with the two buttons I opened up Dreamweaver and with all of my pages I placed all buttons that made by selecting Layout on the top of the page then Draw AP Div. Using that tool Click a drag open a box where I would be placing the buttons. Then I went back to common and selected Rollover Image out the the Images menu. Then did what it told me to do after that.

Web Pages

For these webs pages I used Adobe Illustrator. I have borders where I will put my links. I have four webs pages, the first one in the Homepage where it stats what the website is about. The second page is the Class Overview page where it tells you what the multimedia class is and do. The third page is the Bio page, and it's about me and my interests. Finally the last page, the projects page where it show the name of the programs we use.

KINNEY_FlyerJPEG

For this project I made a flyer to promote the Roselle Park High School TOB Home Show. I used Adobe Illustrator to create it and used many Elements and Principles of Design. The first principle I used repetition and I used it for a few things. The first thing I used it on was the border I copied multiple circles and pasted them around the edge of the page. I made the circles by using the ellipse tool to make one circle then I changed the brush to 5pt flat. Then copied and pasted it as many times as I needed. The second thing I used it on was the music notes I placed on the page. I created them by making small circles, for some of them, and then used the line segment tool to about the length of a music note and I place the line near or on the circle.


The second principle I used for this flyer was emphasis and I used it on two things. The first thing I used it on was the picture of our Marching Band. When I pasted it on the page I thought that it would give the people that are looking at it more interest. The why I got the picture was I downloaded a program at home called SnapShot that would let me take snap shots of my computer screen. Then I watched a video of us performing and I paused it where I thought it would make a great photo. Then I sent to my email then opened it up in school, and then I copied and pasted it onto the page. After that I placed a border around the picture. The second thing I used this for was the symbol, Atlantic Coast Championship 2009 Finalist with the TOB logo in the middle. The hard thing about this was trying to make the logo for TOB. I used the line segment tool, the ellipse tool, and the rectangle tool. I used eight lines, two circles, and three rectangles.
