Contest $50 How-It-Works Graphic Contest (48 Hours)

Discussion in 'Design Contests' started by Winston808, Nov 15, 2013.

    Looking for a graphic to explain how-it-works on a web page for akin, a company that sells t-shirts to raise funds to buy school uniforms for children in developing countries.

    The winner will be asked to create a second graphic with the same theme and total amount for both graphics will be $50.

    They are looking for a simplistic, modern clean cut graphic to explain the following points (suggestions for graphics in parenthesis but feel free to be creative in choice):

    1. We IDENTIFY kids in need of uniforms to attend school
    (world map/ school with some kids not in uniform outside)

    2. Next, we CREATE t-shirts unique to our identified region, working with our akin community to crowdsource for a cause
    (t-shirt/crowdsourcing image - t-shirt with africa continent as the picture with akin leaf inside)

    3. Then, we SOURCE uniforms locally to support and sustain that region's economy
    (uniforms being sewn)

    4. Finally, the kids EARN their own school uniforms by participating in a community service project
    (kids planting trees. Environmental projects)

    5th final graphic no text - kid in uniform, in class, smiling etc.

    The Color scheme should fit with the web colors of the following subpage:

    Website Subpage jpeg.jpg

    They work with countries all over the world so any characters (people) depicted should be neutral colors for example, blue or green figures.

    Include the 4 text points as part of the graphic

    All questions and submissions must be submitted through the thread, No PM'ed messages allowed.

    The winner will receive in total $50 and provide the graphic in PSD and vector

    Hi Winston808,
    I'm not sure i found info about some things.

    What size in px must have the entire graphic? Also, you need both psd and vector formats or just one will be enough?
    Thanks!

    Hi @dumitrumidon,

    We need it to be 72 px for the website, but they may print it for the flyers etc as well. It will be primarily used as an image on a web page sort of like an info graphic. I will include some examples to make it a little clearer. If that doesn't answer your question please let me know and thanks for your work.

    P.S these are example of the type of image we are looking for but the graphics dont need to look the same Example1.jpg

    @kferguson thanks for the submission, great start but we don't want to use photos for the images with the texts. We want to create graphics to accompany the text, like the samples above.

    @dumitrumidon really great work. Very impressed. I will get feedback from the client and get back to you. The color scheme looks good and it's nice and clean looking. They may possibly prefer to include the image of a child in there somewhere too but I will get back to you as soon as I can.

    @dumitrumidon The client really likes your entry. Would it be possible to try and make the material look more like a school uniform on the third circle with the sewing machine?

    @Scot Hiller Thanks so much for the entry. Great work! The feedback was could you try a different color for the highlighted words in the text? For the child in the 4th circle could you try and make it a little more clear that it is a child maybe with a spade or something?

    For any other the entries the circles look amazing, so impressed! The clients wouldn't mind seeing entries also similar to the second sample given eg. graphics not in circles. however feel free to be creative in layout and graphics. As always such talent here.

    @kferguson looking forward to seeing your revised work as we really liked the layout idea you had

    @dumitrumidon love your work and it is getting better. Like the idea of the button shirt but could you possibly make it look more obviously like a shirt than it does at the moment? I like the buttons maybe add a pocket? Great work though.
