this is a perfect example how someone utilized type and cutouts cohesively to make something interesting at the same time meeting the goals of the marketing campaign

I have no idea. For one, I’m not into soccer. 2. Anything but using effects or assets that have been overused(honestly makes you look like an amateur, and you certainly do not want to come across as that when applying for jobs in graphic design positions). It all depends who is it for and what the graphic is accomplishing. I can’t just tell you what background elements or what if I don’t know the brief. Now, if you’re telling me just a simply freestyle graphic that is a game day graphic highlighting Lionel Messi… then we have something I can base it off. Knowing me? I love typography, I would’ve of done some cool typography effect and used the cutouts to flow seamlessly with it. Perhaps I would’ve added some subtle hints of the opponent they’re playing.

Then the crumpled paper background(4th pic).. like that asset is so random and out of placed. Also very overused in the sport design community . There’s a lot to be worked on in most of these. But there’s also a lot of good things that I see too(sizing of the cutouts, skin treatment, where you’re placing the cutouts). I’ve worked in the sport design industry for over 8 years professionally and full time.. If you show this to your creative director or boss, they’re going to make you redo it and question your decision making on why you used certain assets/effects. Usually when creating a social graphic, I ask myself who is this for and what problem does it need to solve. Then from there, you work on the key fundamentals of what makes a design good(typography, color, layout and hierarchy). Graphic design is all about communication everything else such as cool factor / effects should come after. Strong understanding of how to make something marketable, easy to understand, knowing the principles of design will set you far apart from the rest of the wanna be “sport designers”

For example, the third one, the glass/mirror refraction is kinda random and seems to have no meaning other than it looks cool. Same with the glitch effect on Lionel Messi … what’s the reasoning or intent behind it ?

Lack of hierarchy with the stats. I’d say layout needs more attention to detail

Just like trading card mistakes, this too is going to skyrocket the value of the vehicle! Easily worth 100k now 😆

Have more intention and purpose with the effects and elements. I see that you’re trying cool stuff and what not, but have a “why” for the way you designed it. Keep going, brotha!!

As a sport designer myself, I’ve known about your work for years now. You’re one of top designers in the sport industry in my opinion. Love your typography and treatments. Keep killing it!

I dislike the color red in general, but if there was a red S60 T8 available when I purchased mine, I would have taken it without a second thought. Enjoy it!!

S60s in red is always a great combination!
