March Madness 2021 Billboard
Adobe Illustrator
In Spring of 2021, I had the opportunity to design a billboard for the March Madness tournament. My design was chosen by a panel of those involved with the tournament and was then featured on I-70 during the month of March. I based my design off of their provided branded materials and decided to take inspiration from a GPS reminding travelers when they have made it to their final destination. With this in mind I added the "You Are Here" phrase to get teams, fans, and families excited as they enter Indy for the tournament. Fox 59 also interviewed me about my design so I was able to share the concept behind it to anyone watching. This experience taught me a lot about print design, collaboration, and how to talk about my work in a professional manner.
