Lesson 17 InDesign

Sorry that this brochure is SO many pages!!! 






For my example I downloaded the 2011 World Fest (In Branson, MO) brochure. On the computer this example is 6 pages of full color; text and pictures. The brochure looks very exciting and inviting, both good things when trying to catch the attention of a passer-by looking for something fun to do while in the entertainment city. To me, the design of the brochure is the typical Silver Dollar City style, visually showing the different aspects of the parks and family bonding. However, this brochure is unique in showing entertainment and fun all around the Branson area. There are other attractions such as Showboat Branson Belle, Dixie Stampede, White Water and more. As for the World Fest portion the designer certainly didn’t stay away from the added “pizzazz” needed to illuminate the different cultures present and their specialties especially with a headliner reading “OUT-OF-THIS-WORLD Performances.” I honestly don’t have any improvements to this brochure. If I was going to say something I would say to try a new style, but then it wouldn’t be as easily recognizable to the familiar eye. What I find so familiar are the pictures of the folks who work at Silver Dollar City, blowing glass, making pottery and the scrumptious food. It’s aspects like those that make this brochure so well-known to individuals who have previously been to the park or have researched. It is also staples like those that make people comfortable with the information being given.
