Hi there. Welcome to our first production video.
What's a production video?
It's where we're not actually learning anything new,
we just need to get some stuff done.
We do learn a little tips and tricks as we make stuff,
but you can skip this video if you like.
We're going to go through and actually just put together
this cover for our newsletter before we move on, let's go and do it.
Okay, so let's do the cover page, double-click "Page one",
double check down here you're on page one and zoom out enough that you can see the edges,
especially when you're working with like a full page.
I'm scrolling around with these guys.
I'm actually using a little shortcut,
if you hold on "Space bar" on your keyboard,
you see your cursor turns into a little hand and
I can click "Hold" and drag, I use that quite a bit.
Okay, so I've zoomed out so I can see the edges easily,
and I'm going to go to "File", "Place",
"Command D" or "Control D" on a PC.
I'm going to bring in "Garden Centre",
so make sure you're in your exercise files,
you're an O3 newsletter,
and make sure you're working with Garden Centre. Click "Open".
You can click once or you can click and drag.
I'm going to click and drag across to try and get it all in there.
It's a little bit big for it, but it's okay,
remember W shows you it trimmed up.
Okay, so there's a nice bit of bleed there that's going to go in
the bin so it's going to have a nice edge, great.
So now we're going to bring in the logo, go to "File",
go to "Place", and we'll bring in the black one and click "Open".
I'm going to click once over here, make it a little bit bigger,
maybe about that sort of size,
and stick in there even bigger.
Okay, remember we're holding down "Command" and
"Shift" to do the resizing and it's going to go in the middle.
You see the green line appeared to show it's in the middle.
You can get it to align perfectly in the middle,
by opening up your "Window",
go to your align its under "Object", "Align".
What you can do by default,
it's going to align to selection,
which means, if you've got one thing selected, nothing's going to happen.
It's when you have two things selected,
it's going to align to those two select things.
It doesn't make much sense. What makes sense is I'm going to align to the page.
Switch that out.
Okay, so now when I hit "Center",
it's going to align to the page behind it.
Same if I did this side,
it's going to align to the page.
That only happens if you've got that selected.
That could be a pain next time you try and do it and you're trying to just align
two things like we did for the photo numbers, okay, the page numbers.
So you might have to go back to selection afterwards.
We're going to leave it at selection and move him up.
Awesome. Before we go,
we're going to go and switch this out for the white one.
You're like, we just put the black one in?
I know it's more of an example I want you to get used
to be able to use this links panel, have these selected,
you don't have to actually and make sure this is selected over here, "Logo green",
and go to this one that says "Relink" and switch it out for the white version.
Hey, okay, practice.
We're practicing.
Alright, production video over.
Let's go and talk about image resolution.
Fun.
