Banner

About the beginning of the month, Pastor Anne proposed the idea of developing a banner to display outside. The original concept was a 4 meter banner, with the text which relates to the coming Miracle Encounter. However, after researching costs, the banner size came down to 3×1 meters.

I have had expereince in making large graphics (A0 poster), so I knew the restrictions I had. I constructed a graphic piece in illustrator. The chose illustrator due to vector art having superior benifits with large scale projects. For those who don’t know, vector art is based on mathematical equations. Pixel art (Photoshop) is based on small coloured squares combining to create an image.

This was the first art I came up with:

Pastor Anne believed that the banner would not be suitable. She wanted something more vibrant and youthful. She showed me an internet image from another church and asked me to redesign to full scale. I scraped Illustrator and went to Photoshop. I changed programs because the graphical image was very complex, and illustrator just can’t make detailed cuts in a short amount of time. I don’t recommend doing this however, it’s only an exception due to time constraints. In the end, Pastor Anne was very happy with the final result, except for a spelling error “Come and find out FOR yourselves”. A very expensive mistake. This is the second mistake of typos. I pray the Holy Spirit will stop further errors in my work.

Praise the Lord. Amen.
