Overview

FanimeCon is one of Northern California’s largest anime conventions. I designed quick-turnaround graphics for social media, schedules, and guest spotlights, adapting formats and maintaining brand consistency to keep attendees informed and engaged.

Goals

  • Promote events and panels to maximize attendance
  • Maintain consistent branding across all formats
  • Produce and deliver assets quickly during the convention

Challenges

  • Same-day requests and shifting schedules
  • Mixed-quality photos and varied artwork sources
  • Multiple output formats with different specifications

Solutions

  • Built modular templates for rapid updates
  • Established a type/color system with export presets
  • Used Photoshop and Lightroom for quick image fixes, Illustrator for vector work, and After Effects for motion polish
