The Art of Psychology Week in Ateneo de Naga ;)

On the last week of february, I was tasked to create four typography designs for the Psychology Week in Ateneo. It was a great challenge for me because it's been awhile since I last used photoshop to create typography. As usual, the struggle was real...it made me drained thinking how I am supposed to make everything look creative and not mediocre. I even tried googling for ideas but unfortunately I was so uninspired.

So what I did was to listen to old songs (it is a form of therapy to me hahaha). I love listening to Lani Misalucha's renditions and covers of old songs. I must be weird for loving the song "Starting Over Again" but (hey) it was helpful for me to finally create something acceptable to be a placard design for Psychology Week. I think I found the mood of the songs really motivating and inspiring that I was moved to create the following typography:

You may download these designs without my permission (I intentionally did not put watermark on these because I am too lazy to do it, and I trust that you will not use it for profit hihi).

Every bit of detail in these designs are created in Adobe Photoshop Elements 11 and all of these are made by me.

To give you a glance on how they looked like during the Psychology Week, here are some pictures.

I grabbed photos on my facebook friends who posted pictures with the placards :))

During the Psychology Week, all the psych major who wore these placards roam around the campus hugging students for free, telling people to smile, high five-ing with them and encouraging students to share a thought. It was such a relief that the people who gave me this task was very satisfied with my work. It was great to be part of the Psychology Week (even though I was not able to wear those placards due to stress in thesis during that week).

It feels good that people appreciate my work and tell me that it's really good or it's cute and even ask me to teach them how to do it. hihi
