Heya, design team!  I was hoping folks could help out with a few quick
things in the next few days:

1. We still need logos for artcards - this is super important, and
needs to be done by Friday.  These should be simple logos with the
Birdie, BOS diamonds, and just the basic Bushwick Open Studios dates,
copy and URL.  Here are the specs:

- banner image for the email: 400px wide by 90px high
- logo for the website: 234px wide by 60px high

If someone could do this before Friday morning, that would be amazing.

2. We need an 8 x 11 version of the second postcard (attached) for
postering, need this ASAP (ideally in time to be printed for the
meeting tomorrow).  I tried just scaling up the PDF of the postcard,
but the resolution doesn't hold up.  Pegah, you probably have the
original and could scale it up?

3. We will need building number posters to start distribution at the
meeting next Tuesday.  Does anyone have the posters from last year?
My guess is that we can just reuse that and not redesign them.  If we
can't turn up last year's file, it would be great if someone could
take this on.  These are super super simple - 8x11, just the
BOS/Birdie logo, the text "Bushwick Open Studios", a big orange circle
to write the building number into with a sharpie, and the AIB logo and
www.artsinbushwick.org at the bottom.

Let me know which of these items you might be able to help out with or
have info about.  Thanks!

Laura

Laura,

I just uploaded the 8 x 11 (not 8.5 x 11, right?) of the second
postcard. Please see Files > BOS09front-Promo_052109.pdf and let me
know if it is good.

I think I can do the other 2 as well. And if I can see the building
number posters from last year as you mentioned about, that would be
helpful.

Yay, thank you thank you! I meant 8.5 x 11, for printing on regular
letter paper, but this should be fine - no need to rework.

I'll print some to bring to the meeting tonight.

Amazing!!! Hopefully someone has the file of the posters from last
year, will let you know if they turn up in the next couple days. The
artcards logo images can be uploaded, or emailed directly to maggie
and me is also fine.

Thank you thank you!

I only did the task#2 last night. If you can do the #1, that'd be
great too, Pegah.

Here is the emails I sent and the respond from Laura B;

Hi Laura,
- What is artcard? You said we need things for artcards but the specs
you
gave are for banner and web logo. What is the spec for artcard? Or
should I
just do those 2 things?
- Which format should I save them as?
- Task #1 --- same text for both? The size of logo for web site is
kind of
small, though. Should I not put the URL?
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tanya,
Artcards is a website that promotes art events, so yes, these
are for web. Those two specific things (banner image for email, logo
for website, dimensions below) are all that is needed.

jpg format would be great.

On content - I think having the website on there is important, I know
it's small though. Maybe best bet would to have it say:

Bushwick Open Studios and Arts Festival
250+ Open Studios, Group Shows and Events
June 5-7, 2009
www.artsinbushwick.org

Would that fit?

Thanks!
L
