Task 2

P2)

Local Band Logo- Vector/Adobe Illustrator- The vector makes a smooth image and is best for lines and text and Illustrator allows for the use of text and images. The logo will need smooth lines and a vector file type will provide that much better than a bitmap. The file type that would be needed to make this an internet graphic would be a JPEG or GIF

Builder Van Text- Vector/Adobe Illustrator-The vector creates a smooth image even when enlarged. There is also a large range of colours and text to make eye-catching text. It is best used for text, in comparison to bitmap so would be the best file type. Adobe Illustrator has a wide range of fonts which would create an attractive text for the side of the van. This would need to be an internet graphic so you would have to make it a JPEG or GIF.

Nursery Flyer- Bitmap and Vector/Microsoft Publisher-There may be images and text on the flyer so you need bitmap and vector. A flyer will certainly have text on it so will definitely need a vector file type. A flyer may also need images to make it more eye-catching so this is why a bitmap file type would be needed. Publisher is a good software for flyers because it provides both images and text to users.
