Senior Show Cards

February 24, 2009

So the senior designers have been given the task of creating the promotional materials for the senior show. We have to make two posters, one for each show,  a mailer that will include both shows, a press release, some kind of mass email, some kind of guerilla/viral marketing idea, and a keynote presentation. Our class has been divided up into groups and our group of four has been working on concepts and execution. So far Alyssa and Jessi has come up with different variations on a similar concept. I really liked the way it was looking, but was wanting to change the visual graphics some how, because I am not a huge fan of gradients. So in wanting to keep the broken up look of the original graphics, I took a bright photo and scaled it up into giant pixels. This created the look I was going for and it easily allows for variation with different color compositions for the different pieces. Since the design of itself is simple and clean with lots of white space, the colors can be as different as we want without disconnecting with the rest of the pieces, but still allowing them to differentiate from one another. There are still some kinks to work out and some more type setting to be done, but I am really happy with where we are at right now. It is clean, well-structured, fun and engaging. Tomorrow we will find out if the rest of the senior class thinks so as well!show 1show 2
