Well well well… another week has passed by as an STA. I took a small break from monkey skulls aka VLabs to create some assets for the Intro to Human Dimensions of Orgs online course. The long-term goal is to be able to reuse these templates for any online HDO course. The department wanted to emphasize the HDO and UT brand/logo in case the slides ever appear outside of their usual context.

 

As a student I know it can feel weird if your classes feel super modern/polished/branded/whatever so I was not going for avant-garde with these designs. Lowkey=good, which is why of HDO’s three brand colors (orange, blue, gray), I used gray as the main accent color in the final. I’m sharing two drafts and and the final version is below those.

Final:

 

It sounds like the professor will show up in a small video box in the right bottom corner of slides, so I kept it blank down there. Next I’ll make some simple backdrop and title assets for the video team to include in recordings.

Personal life update, I found a really nice couch dumpster diving so sold my old one for $50! Now maybe I can get a coffee table.
