    The Sync...

    Posted on Jan 12, 2010 at 4:06 PM

    This is ok... I would make the sync symbol in the middle round and the explanation of the virtual run around in it.

    I am not keen on the font choice, or the outline stroke used. Considering that your dodea logo looks so cool, the poster doesn't strike me as visually pleasing.

    I would try something graphically more appeling almost making it into a band poster, but with the same message.

    Keep going though, and good luck!

      The flat colors with no texture matches the identity already in place. As do the fonts.

      The VIRTUAL in the middle area is a requirement to be displayed that way. I have Zero opportunity to change the text. But can change the layout or add elements if needed. Maybe pictures?

    drop the effects

    It's a good start but it's just missing something, I wish I could tell you what it was. It's just a little boring (maybe pictures would work if done right). I think you need to drop the stroke and the drop shadow on the middle box and just go with white reversed out of the orange/blue background.

    If you do decide to keep the drop shadows they need to be more consistent. The globe (which reminds me of Antarctica - don't know if it's supposed to) appears to have a very dark shadow with light from the top, the bottom arrow is coming from the top left, and the rest of the box is coming from the top right. All those don't add up to a single light source.

      also it sounds like it's not really your control but the VIRTUAL section reads kind of funny. It's obviously supposed to be all one paragraph but it's very disjointed.

      Ugh. I know! I complained about that to a colleague. I tried to put the entire sentence around the outer rounded rectangle, but it looked a little busy. I might try that again as an overlay or something.

      I agree. It's a little plain. I'm just trying to figure out what to do now. !

      Maybe a little plain is ok -there is quite a lot of "message" to get around here . Unless someone had oodles of time to actually read and absorb I think it may already be over the top for a quick scan.

    Feels like a design in the 90's

    The design feels a bit old school. Try adding some textures and changing the background. It feels like you didn't spend much time on the details of this project. I'd say keep working and see where you can take this.

    The design isn't that great

    I don't like it that much, if you turn into a "translator" between the client and the design, give it up.
