Day 5
Everyone created an awesome animation! Today, we learned about Brand Identity and have taken a look at examples of good design and bad design. We covered effective strategies that we can use to promote the business once the brand identity is built, such as social media.
For homework, create an instagram post and story for your existing or imagined company. Think about the company name, color palette, and font style before designing the post! Add a headline, sub headline, images, a CTA button and decorative elements to make the post visually appealing!
Resize to Instagram story after. Have fun :)
