    La Trobe University 2025 Sport Guide
    I designed the layout for this publication, sticking closely to La Trobe's brand Guidelines, including typefaces and colours. I chose the images to use throughout the pages as well as on the cover. I worked closely with the client from the Sports Faculty, and also our Content team who wrote the words. I did the pre-press work on the document, and liaised with the printer throughout production. I managed the project, and stuck to timelines in order to have the document ready for student Expo's. graphicdesigner illustrator typography photoediting retouching prepress finishedart projectmanagement
