Think about where your designs will go!

Friday’s Creative Review for Graphic Designers

WARNING: Parental discretion is advised. Sort of.

Some things just crack me up.

You know how I always emphasize that you should know how and in what context your designs will be used?

Well, you should also take into account how and where it will be printed.

Here’s a ad that appears on a bus. I don’t think I need to really explain why it’s really not all that appropriate do I?

I guess the designers never took into consideration what the bolts on the bus will do to the picture did they?

This is what happens when you don’t go and check out where your design is going.

C O N C L U S I O N :

Whether you are creating a poster, billboard, or an ad for a bus, go check out where it will appear. Check out if there are any marks or imperfections you should know about.

Another classic nipplegate example!
