One Sheet Development
Crafting the one sheet posed the challenge of infusing personal work while maintaining a fun and creative design approach. The key concept involved creating a collage-like composition featuring my illustrative characters.
The process began by importing previous illustrations into Photoshop, followed by scaling and cleaning up background elements for coherence.
Various layout iterations were explored, determining layering and sizing arrangements among the characters to achieve visual balance.
Additionally, a header and biography section were incorporated, curving text around illustrations to facilitate a natural visual flow.
A footer containing personal links for self-promotion was added, complemented by a paper background texture to enhance thematic cohesion.
The final outcome is a personalized promotion one sheet reflecting my illustrative flair, showcasing capabilities, and providing insights into myself and my brand.
