EAR Step 1 For my first step in the EAR project, I decided to look at different flyers that could be used as attention grabbers for prospective students. This flyer uses many different colors to grab anyone's attention. The way each bubble entails a different are of interest will also draw the reader to each topic. It's a very brief flyer with information, and only hints on certain areas, but I thought that was a great idea. If the few simple words on the flyer were interesting enough, many people would probably want to know more about it. This flyer is all about grabbing attention and leaving someone wanting to know more. This flyer uses a bright, eye catching color to first grab a reader's attention. Then, like the first flyer, it uses brief details leaving the reader wanting to find out more. Unlike the first flyer it uses pictures instead of a one or two word description. Each picture brings something different to the "Olympic" atmosphere the flyer is trying to create. A list of important information, the where and when, are also listed in an easy to read and understand format. There are also eye popping colors used for additional and fun information a reader may want to know, like the soft drinks and popcorn available. This final flyer uses a more simple, informative approach. The colors are first of all bright and alluring and the script is fancy. It follows the theme of the flyer, which is art and design. All of the information is listed, including dates and majors, and location of the institute. I believe this flyer may interest someone wanting to go into art and design because of its creativeness, which will reflect well on the institute itself.

I decided to create my own version of a college flyer. I used certain details from my previous flyer examples. I used bright, eye catching colors, and broke up the information into simple one or two word phrases. The information is vague, but still informative enough to hopefully get someone to want to know more, and call for more information. I tried to highlight some of my ideas that I observed during my CLUE project. During my CLUE project I saw how much students liked to socialize and have fun more than anything, so my flyer identifies with subjects one would include in that.
