Day 10

Collected intern sketches for Carrie Underwood poster (plus coffee.)


WHAT I DID
  • Got our first design job (not to be confused with restriking old posters!)
  • Sketched ideas for Carrie Underwood poster
  • Set type for Carrie Underwood poster

LESSONS FOR TODAY
  • Don't design something that will be extremely hard to restrike.
  • Be aware of color separations and how they will affect the printing process.
  • Reference your artist's website/latest merch/album covers, etc. so you can design appropriately.
  • Keep in mind that your poster design should represent your artist and Hatch
  • After creating a small sketch, recreate your sketch as actual size to reference when pulling type.
