The Thunderbird Project

Published by admin at 7:11 pm under Advertising / Design, Illustration

OK, this is a thinly veiled Blogo test. I am nowhere near the net. Exciting isn’t it? I thought that it was time that I blogged the Thunderbird project. The initial brief asked for a design for a 6 foot by 4 foot standee. (A store display). I started with a thumbnail that was actually headed towards an illustrative solution. However, after playing with the type a little, I thought I might be able to create a photo composite using the logo, the storefront shot, and a stock photo. In the end the client liked the photo composite; they changed the jacket from blue to red and then ordered a counter card, a flyer, a 12 foot x 3 foot banner, and a button. The banner called for a major redesign of the type element as well as some tweaking to the photos and backgrounds. All in all it was a fun job. I enjoy photo composites as much as I enjoy illustrations so this project was a win/win.
