Portfolio

The portfolio section of DeanMorin.com includes written communications/public relations work and graphic design samples. Please note: the portfolio section is still under construction, but will be completed soon.

In the mean time, feel free to examine some of the already posted portfolio pieces. Some of the pieces below vary from old classroom assignments to actual pieces sent to the media. Check the small description listed next to each piece for more details.

Note for Mac users: These .pdf documents may not appear properly on your computer. I'm aware of the glitch and I'll fix it soon.

Graphic Design & Advertisements
Dean Morin's Vice-Presidential Election Poster - This is my self-designed vice-presidential election poster used in the 2004 Students' Association election.

Newsletters, Guides, and Corporate Documents
Outreach Media Relations Guide - This was a school assignment that was designed to be a joint project in graphic design and written content. The idea was to create a newsletter on media relations from scratch for an imaginary organization. I put together the content for this guide and did the design work as well. This file is 4 megs to download, so if you decide to download it, be prepared to wait a bit.

The Fifteen-Minute Guide to the Media, Interviews, and Public Speaking - I created this guide for the City of Ottawa's public health department. This guide is now given out to people who work in the department's volunteer resources section. It was done as an agency contract earlier this year at Algonquin College.
