From Designer to Artworker

Propeller’s designer created the initial concept pages, and Sarahjane continued the production of the remaining 91-page booklet using supplied text and images. Working in Adobe InDesign, she used paragraph styles, master pages, and object styles to maintain consistency throughout the publication while creating an efficient and flexible layout. This structured artwork approach ensured the document remained easy to update, accurate, and production-ready, allowing the project to progress smoothly from creative concept through to final artwork.
