Art Challenge Promotional Design Feedback

May 17th - Open Source Super Hero

• Nikita's Design

  • Use the creative freedom summit logomark (grouped characters) in the left top banner instead of the fedora logo. The banner is kind of sticking out (very stark with the white against dark blue), maybe try a blue color here? or a light version of one of the colors in the logo(green, pink, or purple)? try adding a stroke like you've done with the billboard
  • I really like the billboard, but the white is sticking out.. maybe try matching this to whatever you do with the top left banner for cohesion. I think you can also add "Brought to you by the Creative Freedom Summit" text or the entire logo? I think you have added some thing grey at the bottom of the billboard- maybe those are what it's standing on? its hard to tell what it is… so I think you can either remove that or make it a bit more defined. I also think the white spotlights are very bright on this compared to the other spotlight in the middle, try reducing the opacity on those.
  • Add some more details to the design- which you can find in the shared notes. Most notably, I think we need to add in the dates of the challenge and where to find more information. June 1st-30th. Where the information will be is TBD, but I would say add in a piece of text to represent a link.
  • The details on the building are looking good, I think the white is sticking out a bit here, as well.. try reducing the opacity on those so they blend in a bit with the background

• Madeline's Design

  • I think this design is nice- but I also really liked the more sketchy design you showed previously.. is there a reason you went with something more "slick"? I don't want to create a bunch more work for you, but that original design had something really nice about it :)
  • The top left and across the top banner is sticking out to me a bit.. I think it might be the different tones of white for the rectangle and the banner coming out? maybe using the same color with a drop shadow might be nice? I also think it feels slightly imbalanced because you have the bottom banner going off the right side of the page, it feels like this one should do that on the left side somehow?
  • I think the "#1" being on its own line in the banner is also feeling a little funky. I guess its so we can increase the number of the challenge as we do them and have plenty of space,.. maybe try a right alignment?
  • I think we should add in a link or something for people to find out more info- that's TBD as I mentioned, but you could add in some placeholder text for a link
  • With this more vectory design, I think it would be nice to add in that swirly texture in some capacity - the one we used for the summit event branding
