ADVOCATING // Pop-Up Banner Design for the NCIA

Pop-Up Trade Show/Expo Banner Design (33×78) for the NCIA (@NCIA #NCIA)

I received a request to create a 33×78 banner.  I was initially given their most recent class photo taken in Washington DC and to use this in the banner (top photo).  I submitted several potential design layouts but the photo was not quite working within the live area. I decided to combine 2 photos to better address the abundance of  live area within the banner. I silhouetted the class photo (using the pen tool) and then removed the sky from the state capitol building below and combined them.

Next, I started working on the typography. I wanted focus on the word “Advocating” and tried different techniques and colors to achieve a 60’s Avant Garde style.

First Horizontal.

Then Vertical (turned 90 degrees).

But what if I just stacked the letters by cutting the words into 3 rows and used these letter forms really, really large? The human brain can process this. It will read this word as “Advocating.”

With the photos combined, the “Advocating” typography and the other required elements for the signage, I was able to create a bold statement piece for the NCIA (National Cannabis Industry Association) to display at their booth at trade shows and events.

National Cannabis Industry Association (NCIA) Facebook Marketing

I designed a Facebook cover image for the NCIA’s (National Cannabis Industry Association) Facebook page by incorporating their tagline of “Advocacy, Education, and Community” and reversing it out in bold blocks of color from their established branding colors of yellow, orange and light green.  I had established this block design style of their tagline in 2016 for their annual Cannabis Business Summit™ and Expo.   #CannaBizSummit

Design an events page image for the “QCC” (Quarterly Cannabis Caucus).
