Publication Production
2007 to 2014
Sounding Board
Official newspaper of the Vancouver Board of Trade and Its Members
This 16 page newspaper, inserted into Business in Vancouver on a monthly schedule, was my responsibility from production to print.
Ads were created or supplied, checked and corrected in Adobe Acrobat. Text and photos were pulled from the FTP site and formatted into an InDesign template. Once approved, the pages were uploaded to the printer.
For online, an interactive PDF and a flip book using ISSUU would be made and distributed.
Better Business Bureau

Cover design, ad design, layout, production, pre-press, and final proofing.
The cover for BBB’s 100th anniversary in 2012, had to have their corporate colours (blue and orange) and both of the supplied photos (of Vancouver in 2012 and 1912), and wanted a “now and then” theme.
Ads design on a tight deadline-orientated schedule. For this issue, I formatted the 20 page directory, sourced photos, uploaded the PDFs to the printer and press checked it.
Canada’s source for commercial real estate and investment opportunities and news
Ad design on a tight deadline-orientated schedule. I used Adobe software to design ads and on occasion layout the paper, PDF the pages, and send to press. After distribution, I would create an online version and upload it.
These Glacier publications are only the tip of the iceberg. I worked on more over the 7 years at Business in Vancouver.
