— Spring 2026 STA Roster Poster–

I worked on this assignment in December and the first half of winter break; however, I finished it up during this month and will share my process here!

This poster was very fun! I loved being able to return to Photoshop after spending many weeks in Illustrator. Having the freedom to create fun and expressive doodles was refreshing and I enjoyed myself a lot during the creation of this poster.

Since I was picking up the assignment, I was able to jump right in without having to do much planning. Taking in the previous feedback, references provided, and existing poster, I got right to work!

Sketch for the poster title

As we got the final list of STAs in, there had to be some adjustments to who was on which Spring Roster Poster. We swapped Classroom Support and Design for Computer Support and Audio from the Minimalist Poster to even out the amount of STAs while keeping a similar layout to the previous draft.

— Summer Marketing Pre-Roll Animation Continued—

After finishing the frame-by-frame animation for the graduation scene, I was tasked with making some edits as feedback came in. One of these was making edits to the pricing scene. I was requested to add more interest to the background of the scene and bring more attention to the text. Lila suggested make it as if they’re coming from fireworks.

Here is the New Pre-Roll draft (as of the end of January):
