Electric City Aquarium opened its doors in October of 2018. My role as their graphic designer was to develop launch creative for their opening. This included all exhibit signs, infographic signs, brochures, rack cards, and map design. With a grand total of approximately 90 signs, I collected animal information from animal staff and displayed it in a uniformed, easy to digest way, with infographics, maps, animal photo, and fun facts. Map design started with a 3D layout of the facility and on-site sketching of exhibit locations and vital information. All assets were illustrated digitally by hand and crafted together to create the final product. Brand guidelines were closely followed and upheld through all items of advertising. • Branding• Illustration• Infographics• Cartography• Print production
