  • All Pages Are Not Created Equal
    All Pages Are Not Created BY DAN BRILL GATHER ROUND, ALL YOU ASPIRING GRAPHIC DESIGNERS AND WOULD-BE graphic artists. Let’s talk about making pages. Equal I don’t mean making pages look pretty. I don’t mean devel- oping and executing a graphic communi- cation strategy. Those are skills you should possess already — or will have with the proper training. Creating pages in today’s digital world means more than simply being able to design pages well. It means building files that work for their intended destinations, whether for print or for the Web. As one who has seen far too many files come into this publication which were either badly constructed or downright unprintable, it seems to me that there isn’t nearly enough emphasis in schools and graphic design environments on learning how to deliver pages that can be output first time, every time. Not too long ago I was at a trade show here in Toronto. I happened to stop by a booth for the Association of Registered Graphic Designers of Ontario (ARGDO), IMAGE BY DINAH TOLTON where I picked up a pamphlet called A Primer on Buying Graphic Design Services. ARGDO is an organization which was created in 1996 to “serve the best in- terests of both the graphic design industry and the public.” According to its brochure, ARGDO’s Registered Graphic Designer (RGD) designation assures clients that they are working with “an experienced and qualified professional who graphic exchange» june/july 1999» 17 All Pages Are Not is governed by the Rules of Professional Conduct of [ARG- and organizing of visual information to aid communication Created DO]”.

INTRODUCTION ABSTRACT Nowadays the technological revolution is booming, as new ways in which any type of audiovisual material is produced and consumed are often brought to market. These new ways of recording and viewing the image are far from the old television formats, as portable devices are increasingly used with large screens or larger TVs. This different resolution in all types of screens requires for the viewer a better quality in the image. This has caused the appearance of the 4k format, which increases the number of pixels per frame. The aim of this survey is to capture the importance of postproduction, in particular non-linear editing, and the benefits of working in this 4k video format. So it will be done a tutorial of basic notions of video editing in 4k using the editing software Adobe Premiere Pro. KEY WORDS: Postproduction, video editing, 4k, tutorial, Adobe Premiere Pro.
