Unit 30: Task 2: P2

Task 2

The school also need to produce brochures and materials that can be used at option and parent's evenings, they also want to display graphical images on the  the Kingswood website and on school vehicles.  You need to recommend the file types needed to display the images in the locations and justify the reasons for your choice.

	Graphic Type	Describe how the graphic is constructed and why you chose the graphic type	How will the final file be saved?
Image for website	Bitmap	Bitmap graphics types consist of very small pixels which are all individually a different colour. Bitmap images are usually taken on a digital camera which will capture all the pixels and is capable of being modified and made larger at a high resolution without destroying the image however may still lose some quality if zoomed in relatively close to the image. I have chosen bitmap particularly for this as they do not have to be edited for the viewers purpose.	JPG, GIF, TIFF
Image for vehicle	Vector	Vector graphics are scalable meaning that they can be adjusted so that the image is capable of being larger and displayed on various surfaces such as a Van. It is made up of lines and dots so the image can be rescaled without the image being ruined due to pixilation. I have chosen a vector graphic for a vehicle image as they are capable of separately altering single images and re-scaling there size and colour etc.	EPS, PDF,AI
Brochure	Both	Vector requires an additional plug-in to be view on the internet. The vector graphic type will be required for saving the image as a bitmap image for the logo so that it can be adjusted and rescaled however you must save it as a PNG file so that you can view it online. Vector graphics are better for displaying logos and bitmap display drawn images better, also they are both best to use when text is involved.	PDF
