There are a few ways you can go about making your own graphics. Many of the assets you have seen around are available in the Design Programme 1.1 (click through… there’s a lot in there!).
There may be some experienced design rebels that can help you with your idea, especially if you are going to print or if you’re going to invest a bit of money. Ask in the Mattermost channel (see below) for a hand. When asking for help, please be mindful of timeframes and people’s capacity - keep the regenerative principle at the core of every action.
What you should download to get started :
- XR Design Programme 1.1 - inc. colour palette and font downloads (and much more)
- XR font (FUCXED CAPS Latin)
- XR logo (Extinction Symbol)
- Aus Animal Illustrations
The big ticket items for graphics are:
- Crimson Text and FUCXED CAPS as your text
- Sticking to the colour palette (no red unless you are a red rebel)
- Not using the logo for anything that you sell (you can give or barter things away though)
There are a few tools & templates for non-designers to have a tinker with:
-
Visuals Generator (VizGen) updated - an online tool to make posters, flyers, facebook event banners etc - XR colours, fonts and graphics pre-loaded
-
An A3 poster - templates you can edit
-
All Aus Arts Files (anything else)
