SOOOooooo... Who am I?
My name is Klain.C and I am roped in last minute by the chairman to be the main designer and photographer for the event! I will be discussing the designs i made for the event and also post info about the event like backstage photographs and detail or our lovely and handsome contestants!
first off!
Design and Graphic!
As part of my job, I will have to design the logo, poster, ticket and backdrop for the event. It was a interesting job as i was roped in last minute thus i have no idea what the pageant lined up is going to be, not even the theme.
As told by the chairman, the theme this year was "LES ENFANTS OLYMPE" and it meant Child Of God in french, the initial theme was actually TimeLine but it was changed to this. The first thing that come up my mind when i hear the theme was Greek and Roman god like Thor and Zeus. An interesting concept for a pageant indeed. So the first challenge will be to produce a decent logo for the event.
i flipped through past year pageant logo to get inspiration but did not get any at all since most of the time the logo had no link with the theme at all. so i start coming up with my own concept and idea generation with the help of my girlfriend. I wanted the logo to contain the figure of a man and lady to show that it is a pageant. I also wanted it to have a majestic feel thus i decided to look for old European style patterns and design. My girlfriend added that I should also include some elements of god or Greek. It took about 2 days and 12 different versions to create something that i feel is decent.
***All these Ideas and Concepts are mine but the some graphics are not mine. Acknowledgements are given for all the graphics which are not produced by me. A great thank you to all the respective owner.***
This is still not the final logo design yet as i might make some changes along the way.
After the concept of the logo is done, i decided to move on to the design of the poster and ticket. As what i had learn in school, it is important to have a continuity in all the design of different promotional materials. As such, i decided to use the same background for poster, ticket and possible backdrop.
Promotional Poster
Ticket
***The pricing of the ticket is still not confirmed yet and $12 is just for illustration purposes***The reason for such a colorful background is to show that the pageant event is also a fun filled event and not just a usual serious pageant competition.
