I was brought onto the project by World Affairs Council Board Member Bryan McCleary. As a freelance graphic designer, I was tasked with developing the branding and visual identity of the World Affairs Council’s prestigious Distinguished Speakers Series.
My first task was to come up with a few mockup ideas for what the initial invitation would look like. I tried to combine WAC's brandmark with a new color scheme of gold and dark blue that I felt would create an elevated and elegant feel to the invitation. After meeting with WAC Staff, they decided to move forward with my branding and design ideas.
I designed the branding, pitch deck, invitation, key speaker slide show, banner and print materials for the kickoff event featuring former CEO and current Executive Chairman of the Board of P&G, Jon Moeller.
