provo care center posters

16x20 posters to accompany the brochures. They’re printing as I write this and look amazing. Hope the brochures turn out.
Part of my step-by-step on designing projects without a budget in two days should include: “Delivering product to client without having a chance to see a test print or feel the paper…” Scary. Thank goodness the poster’s at least look good.*
*ps: there’s a printer smudge on the top of the color poster. bummer. :)Labels: print, projects
provo care center

suzie—my wife, bless her heart—volunteered me to do some design for the non-profit organization that she works for. and, really, even though the circumstances of the project have been poor at best, i’ve really enjoyed the opportunity to work on this.
(how to design a brochure in about a day with no budget)
first
i get a call last thursday evening just before i’m heading home for the day asking me to work on the project. i say yes. they say it needs to be done and printed by wednesday (tomorrow).
then
i get copy friday morning. i browse it over and decide to do a photo shoot with my friend leo. problem is, he can’t shoot until saturday—which means no prints until monday. i call print shops until i find one that offers a deadline later than yesterday.
so
monday we scan the film and the photos turn out great. i meet up with sienna, we brainstorm how to throw it together. we work on some titles, content themes, etc and spruce up the copy. the rest of the day we work on laying out the brochure.
and now
it’s 4am and i’ve sent it off to be printed.
soon
we will celebrate.... knock on wood.
