Battlefield Brochures
Designed by Michael
Aubrecht
One of my recent
commissions is the design of a multi-fold
brochure that will be used as a handout
for Lee's Lieutenants' "Meet The
Generals." The idea spawned from an event
that I participated in called the
Gathering
of Eagles. Unlike
other Civil War reenactments, this
exhibition featured a series of public
debates and Q&A sessions that were
ultimately designed to enlighten all who
desire to learn the true causes and
effects of the War Between the States. One
of the challenges was initiating audience
participation. It was later determined
that the audience may not have been
comfortable asking questions due to their
own lack of knowledge on a given
character. The goal of this brochure is to
remedy that situation and lead to more
feedback. Each general will have a short
biography highlighting his experiences.
There will be 12-14 panels in all and the
brochure will fold out like an accordion.
