Brilliant work.

From what I can see from here, looks like quality and high standard pieces of works as well, not Naija-mentality standard.

I'm Oluyomi Dare, a freelance graphics designer.

This thread will house a compilation of some of my previous designs, I'm into all forms of print designs but with a greater understanding of branding (Logo design, business card design, letterhead design, etc).

Constructive criticisms as well as encouragements will be appreciated.

I also won't appreciate anyone trying to derail the thread.

Thank you.

Hy,student at unibadan too.Nt on bbm.......jst whatsapp;cld use a new friend in school

I school in OAU, same region with kinda UI. Mind dropping your number maybe we can get to be chat buddies?

I'll go first...

Couple of people participated in the Logo design portfolio some months back and I'm sure it came with its benefits.

We'll be doing something similar here, only difference is it will be on business card designs. Post your business card designs here either plain or as mock-ups.

There's greatness in us and I'm hoping Nairaland serves as a platform to showcase that greatness to Nigerians as well as the world.

Note: I read some people asking for pictures of hard copy design samples on folyboy's thread. Most designers, myself inclusive don't have any business with printing so we might not always have access to final printed output. All we do is design.

Maximum of 4 samples each please at a dimension of 700px by 400px, thank you.

Based on design..'presidentially', I'll root for APC.

In other news, the image of an ambulance comes up in my head whenever I see Ambode's logo. Looks like something for/from the health sector.

It does look like it but it isn't. I guess the plus sign above made it tilt to that direction more.

The long awaited event is gradually drawing in. Vote for this, vote for that will soon be words in various historic texts. The 2015 elections will soon be a forgone issue, delivering various winners and losers with subsequent verbal and legal challenges.
The election day(s) or its eventual winner(s) isn't the reason for this article, the campaign process is, specifically the grahics-related aspect of the campaign process. I'll be looking at how Nigerian campaigns have evolved graphically in 2015 elections compared to 2011 elections.

[size=14pt]What has changed?[/size]
I guess many people will agree with me that there has being significant improvement in the deisgn of campaign materials compared to the last general elections(2011). We see neater designs, sharper images, and more visually appealing designs.
I'll be looking at the two major political parties, All Progressives Congress(APC) and the Peoples Democratic Party(PDP) with specific reference to their presidential and Lagos state gubernitorial candidates.

The following are the significant improvements I can pinpoint.

1. Logo: By this, I'm not refering to the logo of political parties on design materials. Candidates this time around have adopted particular logos in form of symbols and word marks. Evwn where the candidates picture isn't available, their respective logos is used to identify materials by them.

The "A" logo used by Akinwunmi Ambode appears on every of his campaign material.

The "JK" logo used by Jimi Agbaje also appears on every of his campaign material.

2: Slogan: Each political party's candidate have sumed up what they are offering into slogans. Some are just a single word while others consist of a catch phrase. The manifesto of the APC presidential candidate has been summed up into the word #Change suggesting that they bring a better option and will offer positive change from the present administration. On the other hand, the PDP presidential candidate is sticking with the slogan #Transformation, suggesting that he is currently putting the nation through a stage of positive trasformation and is ready to keep up with the transformation if voted for to remain in power.

3: Color unity: This I must say is one of the most commendable improvements I've noticed. Campaign materials for a candidate now boasts of similar color profiles through different platforms. Its possible for electorates to guess who's poster they are looking at through the color combination alone. This has also helped in achieving neater and more distinctive designs.

The APC presidential campaign team has adopted use of blue and red in most of its designs.

Also, the PDP presidential campaign team has stuck to use of green and red in most of its designs.

4: Use of fonts: Yes, this part rocks too. I can recall very well those days when a single poster will consist of at least five(5) different fonts, making the thing look like an ancient scroll. Now, there is use of candidate-specific fonts. A particular candidate having a particular font being used consistently in all of his/her campaign materials. As a designer, this makes me proud.

5: Image quality: Permit me to go outside my scope of study a bit. I saw recently a campaign design of the former Bayelsa state governor Diepreye Alamieyeseigha vieing for senate. It was a disappointment. Pixelating image with varying shades of colors. Good news is this kind of designs are few. Candidate images are sharper with impeccable quality. Really, kudos to the photographers and those that edited the images too. You all rock.

I'm going to stop here for now. If PDP and APC are design agencies and I'm asked to patronise either based on their design outputs, I think I'll go with APC. They really revolutionised graphically the campaign process in this election.

If it was you, based on their material designs only, who will you patronise?

I don't see any simplicity here. Can't even seem to pick out any particular design. I can't see any direction. Pay more time to research before any project, its a great source of inspiration.

mismore:
Glad to have you as my b.day mate.

Happy birthday to us in advance!

Yeah, cool. Mind if I send you a PM?

You guys rock .

I'm feb 22

Feb 22nd also.

Note: The following is my personal opinion, counter-opinions and rebuttals will be welcomed and appreciated.

In the beginning was Boko Haram and the present administration wasted no time in attributing its existence and sponsorship to the opposition. They claimed the opposition was trying to make the country ungovernable. I never believed that textbook-inspired story but many Nigerians did. I didn't believe because the opposition can't be that stupid and obvious and if there was any iota of truth in the accusations, why were they not being arrested, investigated and duly prosecuted? Again, the genesis of Boko Haram far preceded the creation of the major opposition party.

I noticed a trend in the time of bomb blasts and related attacks, the major ones mostly occurred when the government's activities were becoming obvious and questionable (I'll come up with a listing of that later). I learnt at that period that this administration practiced a government of distraction. Their agent of distraction was Boko Haram. The attacks shifted attention from whatever was the raging issue at hand unto the victims of the attacks and its degree of brutality in comparison to the last.

Again the government confirmed my fears when it used the same Boko Haram situation to arm-twist INEC into postponing the general elections previously slated for February to March.

My question has and will always be, who stands to gain more from the existence of Boko Haram? The government or the opposition?

Boy, you have an upper hand, listen to yourself.
The thread is sticked/pinned and that shows that before anybody creates a thread, he must have seen the thread.

So, dropping the link shows how desperate you are.
You said, some people just come to steal clients and run away? Like me? Funny. Well, the board speaks for itself. Check my profile out. It says it all.

If you need the job, contact him.
If you don't, let those who are interested to hook him up.
Don't forget, my Designs are on the thread as well.

Just act like a man. Not a boy. Know what I think?
Learn from prof. He is what I call a MOD.

I don't see how what I said warranted your choice of words but keep it up if it makes you a better "man". What I wrote up there is in the interest of designers in this section, either you choose to see it that way or not.

Thank you.

felixchip:
Oga erad, if a designer wishes to contact him, it's left for him.
A designer knows the best means of sourcing for jobs.
All you have to do is drop the link to the portfolios and not calling a designer desperate 'cause your dropping the link shows how desperate you are 'cause your designs are there and you hope to get the Job.

Mind your choice of words.

If I was desperate, I won't have dropped the link. I would have contacted him personally knowing my status here gives me a upper hand and not drop a link that will give everyone a level playing ground.

All I wrote is for the sake of people like you. There are designers who come to this section just to 'steal' away clients without contributing anything and who are not even as good as you are. So if you see my choice of words as offensive, no apologies.

Maybe you should visit the thread below, check out the profiles of preferred designers and contact them. Only desperate amateur designers will tend to contact you the way you are going about it.

I haven't seen or read any thing to believe you are being tormented by terrestrial forces. I think you were oppressed mentally and your mind was pushed to its breaking point. Your woes started the day you started seeking spiritual help for a mental problem.
