Week Four: Project Posting

I am a PR major, so this resume might be a little too "artsy" for me to actually use, but I tried to convey that I am an active person who is simple in some ways (word mark) but likes a flourish here and there (the font variations).

Green is one of my favorite colors because it's fresh, modern, and brings the mind instantly to a forward-thinking trend in the country right now: environmental awareness. I'm not necessarily going into a field where this would come into play, but you never know. I'd like the resume to appeal to non-profit organizations, event planners, and PR firms that have fun, artistic clients.

My last name (Brunkhorst) can be long and awkward, so I chose to make the font thin and sans-serif (Antique Olive STD). I extended the x-heights for the two external letters and the middle two letters to box in my first name (Katlynn), which appears in a more stenciled, serif font family (Serifa STD). I made all the sub-headings bold as well as the bulk of my education section, and left the body text in the sans-serif font.

I plan on using a heavier stock paper with an interesting edge for the final copy. I also outlined the green bullets with a registration black edge for more clean-cut detail.
