GRAPHIC DESIGN, PASSION PROJECT
OVERVIEW
THE PROCESS
SHAPES
Starting the series off with the basics
To start off the series, I went with more of a simple and abstract look for the posters. I played around with different shapes and colours to create depth. Although shapes were “easy” to work with, I learned that adding too many, even small ones, would ruin the poster. I had to really think about where I place each asset to make sure it does not throw the poster off.
CHANGING IT UP
Using imagery to elevate to the posters

MIXING IT UP
Having some fun with different styles
After working with both shapes and images, I decided to make a few with both styles. This became a bit more challenging because sometimes the graphics would become too complicated for no reason.
BAD DAYS
Some of my least favourites
It was inevitable that some wouldn’t turn out great. Most of these were during the early stages of trying a new concept.
GOOD DAYS
Some of my favourites
Bad days always come with good days, and I definitely had some of them during these poster series. They allowed me to learn some new tools and photoshop and also experiment with some new styles.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
⚪ Less is More
I have always been a fan of minimalism but when doing these posters every day, I would always worry that I am doing “too less” or not making the poster creative enough.
🛏️ Get out of your Comfort Zone
I had 30 days! I began to understand that this was my opportunity to really push myself for each poster and try to experiment with as many new design techniques as possible.
