Poster Development
The project posed the challenge of presenting a wealth of information while ensuring Cipe Pineles's image remained prominent. The process commenced with thorough research into Pineles's work, serving as a foundation for the one-sheet.
Drawing inspiration from her graphic design legacy and personal life, the gathered information was organized into a cohesive structure within a InDesign before being transferred to Photoshop.
Given the limited availability of Cipe Pineles's photos, a meticulous editing process ensued to fit one into the dimensions of the Photoshop document. Typography was artfully curved around her image, achieving a visual balance that accentuated the designer's prominence.
The culmination of this project is a mentorship one-sheet, paying homage to Cipe Pineles by intertwining her personal narrative with her impactful contributions to the graphic design industry.
