L02: Be Able To Design Computer Graphics

Important Things To Consider When Designing Computer Graphics?

Important To Consider

 Understand the Client’s Needs

Purpose: What is the graphic for? (e.g., marketing, branding, website, social media).

Target Audience: Who will see this? Tailor the design to appeal to that group.

Style Preferences: Ask if they have specific styles, colors, or themes in mind (e.g., modern, minimalistic, bold).

Important To Consider

Visual Design Principles

Consistency: Use the same fonts, colors, and styles throughout to maintain a cohesive look.

Contrast: Make key elements (like text or buttons) stand out by using contrasting colors or sizes.

Balance: Arrange elements so the design feels evenly distributed and not cluttered or lopsided.

White Space: Leave some empty space to avoid overcrowding and make the design easier to read.

Important To Consider

Technical Considerations

Resolution and Format: Ensure the graphic is high-quality and fits the required dimensions (e.g., for print or digital use). Provide files in formats like PNG, JPEG, or vector (SVG/PDF) as needed.

Colors: Use colors that align with the client’s brand guidelines or preferences. Test how they appear on different devices or in print.

Scalability: If the graphic will be resized (e.g., for logos), ensure it looks good at all sizes by creating it as a vector image when possible.

Important To Consider

Deliverables

Provide final files in all required formats (e.g., web-friendly PNGs or print-ready PDFs).

Include any additional assets they might need (e.g., fonts used, color codes).
