    ASSIGNMENT #5 — EVENT CARD


    Event Cards are effective and affordable devices
    used to promote concerts, art shows, gatherings,
    performances, etc. Event Cards come in all shapes
    and sizes. You will be using a standard format
    without bleeds to simulate cost savings for a client.
    Bleeds are dimensions outside of your final cut
    print piece that allow for imagery to fill the entire
    final output dimension. This allows you to print
    “edge to edge”. Bleeds also cost extra money,
    so sometimes they are not an option for a client.
