DSC Homecoming
Falcons Forever & Welcome Home
Falcons Forever
Homecoming Theme 2023
In choosing the new theme for Homecoming, they wanted to pay homage to all students, alumni and currently enrolled alike. Once a Falcon, always a Falcon.
With this design, it was requested Freddie the Falcon, our school mascot, be included in some way and to ensure the color scheme worked well for a blue shirt. Since I had done an image based design the previous year, I wanted to go with a more illustrated feel.
Assets included creating a fridge magnet, save the date alumni postcard, magazine ad, handbook ad, posters, flyers, marquee sign, campus screen monitor, floor graphic, tv screen ad, three banners (Tailgate, Alumni & Friends, Welcome VIP Alumni & Friends), social media, web graphics, and tailgate yard signs.
*Imagery of the students was taken by one of our DSC hired freelance photographers for the marketing team, I do not own the copyright. As such, I am using them only for portfolio purposes to showcase the shirt design. I took all the other images myself.
Welcome Home
Homecoming Theme 2022
2022 was the first year I was asked to redesign the look of Homecoming as the previous designs were outdated and lacking. I was asked to make it vibrant and modern.
I decided to highlight students with an image/typography based design as the Welcome Home theme was a nod towards the recently built residence hall with its first time residents.
*Imagery of the students used in the design were from DSC’s personal stock photography from past events.
Assets included save the date ads, magazine ad, handbook ad, posters, flyers, marquee sign, campus screen monitor, floor graphic, tv screens, four different banners (Tailgate, Alumni & Friends, Welcome VIP Alumni & Friends, Friday Night Fiesta), social media, and web graphics.
Catch the Falcon 5K - Family Fun Run/Walk Design (2022 & 2023)
I was asked to make new designs for the 5K fun run/walk that the Foundation holds with Homecoming every year. These were also considered a redesign as the pre-2022 designs were majorly outdated as well. The 2022 and 2023 designs were created to reflective the respective overall homecoming design for that year.
*Imagery used in the design as well as the images of the banners were taken by one of our DSC hired freelance photographers for the marketing team, I do not own the copyright. As such, I am using them for portfolio purposes to showcase the banner design only. I took the other images myself.
