Radio Show Design Project – Lots of Brains in this Talk!

For my design for our radio show, I decided to do a show poster / logo that would compliment our topic.

Logic Pod: The Tech Podium is our podcast name. A lot of our initial discussion for our show was about how intellectually sophisticated our characters were. This made us think of a brain as a visual implication of intelligence, which is sort of ironic when all of our characters are talking about AI in some way, which does not function with a physical brain. The “logical” side of the equation is shown by the brain, while it is supported by a microphone stand. The overall background color green allows for the pink brain to pop, and I think that it looks aesthetically pleasing.

I used a website called Brand Crowd to enter the title, and the AI seemingly worked it’s magic and gave me hundreds of pages of logo ideas. I initially attempted to design one myself, but I got frustrated trying to use my nonexistent web design skills and leaned towards using a tool instead. Despite using AI, I think this logo looks quite nifty and is very fitting for our show.

Logic Pod: The Tech Podium Promo

So, for the radio show promo I wanted to make the logo or a bumper sticker or something that could get the point of the show across in on quick glance. The first thing we had to do was come up with the show name, and based on our characters motivations we dialed it into a podcast format about discussing AI and tech etc. with people calling in to discuss their viewpoints or promote their ides. With all of our characters being pro AI for the most part, we assumed that they would all think their view is correct, so their podcast is “logical” to listen to. Then to describe what it is about, we went with tech, and with the call-in aspect, it is like a singular outside entity speaking to the group, almost like from a podium. At least that what was in my head when we nailed down the name.

Moving on… So, for the design I wanted to capture the title of the show and have some interesting graphics to give some energy to the show. My initial idea was to just have a brain standing behind a podium with the title. But as I was using Canva to make my graphic, I came across some really cool designs and changed it up a bit. This is the final product I came up with.

My absolute favorite part of this design is the tech tree. Just has this eerie implication that tech is going to take over nature… strange. And of course, talking about AI and the neon sign effects, I think it really captures the vibe of the show.

Anyway, I had a blast making this and I might even make a few more just for fun.

Aggressive Posters and Bumpers – Radio Show Design

This week I did some designing for Aggressive Testimonials, my group’s radio show. I designed a radio bumper and a poster. This post will mostly discuss the poster since I made another post detailing my process making the radio bumper.

I made the poster in Canva using my propaganda poster from a few weeks ago. I used the same AI generated robot, color scheme, and fonts. I generated a microphone using CrAIyon. I then removed the background using PhotoPea and changed the color scheme in Canva.

I think the design is very simple but functional. I like the consistency with the propaganda poster. Repeating the same aesthetic gives Aggressive Technologies a specific brand.

Radio Promotion

Behind the creation: This week we came up with a name and solidified what we are doing for the project but nothing else about the podcast itself yet. Instead of putting everyone’s names because two of the characters have the same name, I opted to say diverse panel. I found this template on canva for free and edited it to my liking. I found out that it is hard to find a font that pops against certain backgrounds. I feel like this is a great promotion for the radio show!

Poster Notes

Here’s a picture of the poster I made for our audio show. Since I’m not the best at design, I relied on AI to help me make the poster. The three course characters that make my group are depicted in the poster. This poster’s style makes me think of celebrity athletes who band together, join the same team, and pose for their first group photo. If you are unfamiliar with the subject matter, please view this image:

As you can see, I tried to go for a future aesthetic with the three course characters on my poster. I chose to utilize a poster without text because I didn’t like how AI photos displayed text in the past. till, I acknowledge that it would have been helpful to include the show’s name.

Radio Show Logo!

One of the assignments we had to do this week was to create a visual that could be used as our radio show logo or bumper sticker. Along with the radio show bumper and the commercials, we needed something that we could use to help represent the radio talk show. Now in most cases, people would normally have the name of the talk show in the logo, however, I decided to get a little bit creative and experimented with logos that had had text and ones that did not. I finally settled on the picture you see above, and as you can see it does not have any text. I think the picture without any text makes it look more clean and elegant compared to the ones with the text. I decided that this picture was the best fit for our show since we would be focusing on topics such as AI and Aggressive Technologies and the role they play in the field and so the background being futuristic and high-tech really made the picture come together as a whole. However, I also wanted to include the hosts of the talk show as well, and since we have three people in the group, I added three people and had a fourth since the radio show may contain guests if needed. I really like how this turned out and the process of making it was quite simple. I used an AI chatbot to generate the image and had to go through a few iterations to get to this final design. Originally, the pictures were very old-fashioned and looked too much like cartoons and so they did not really fit the theme of the radio show or the project itself. Once I was able to tell the chatbot to give me something more high tech and have it fit the theme a little more, I was able to easily decide that this picture was the one that I would want to be using to try and come to a decision with my group members about which of the three designs should be the final logo. Especially having the really cool looking skyline in the back made the picture that much better and really helped me realize that this was the picture I wanted to go for. The picture is located above and let me know your thoughts.

Radio A.T. Promo✨:

by Greta Hammen

In Adobe Firefly, I uploaded an image of Angelina Jolie from the movie Salt, found on Google. My character, Natasha Sidorov, resembles her. Then by using AI generated additions, I first placed a pedestal table in background on the right side, I added the cat in a separate text request. To do that sort of edit, find the command in the left side bar that allows for generative fill. Click that tool for a box with options to add, subtract, change background or invert image. I clicked add and selected the area that the object should be placed in. The fill is more accurate if the command is simple. Several options were provided from which to choose. Next, I added a microphone to the front left. For the image chosen here the text command was: taller retro silver microphone. Team leader, Bradshaw, shared the font styles so that I could create a cohesive design with the Dr. Ravioli branding. The swipe behind the “Hosted by Dr. Ravioli” text is one of the logo elements available on the site. I chose the light flesh color to blend with the background colors and yet be seen. Aggressive Technologies text is done in the font, Capitol, with a shadow effect. There are several text effects in Adobe Firefly. The letters are in light silver with black shadow.

Radio Ravioli Promo Poster

I knew I wanted to make a promotional poster for the radio program. So, I did. I used Adobe Firefly AI to make the basic picture I wanted. I am getting faster at getting the results I want with it. OR perhaps it is learning what I like? After I had a picture, I downloaded it and opened it in Adobe Photo Shop. From there I spent at least an hour playing with fonts, colors, sizes, and placement of words. I then went to go find an assignment in the assignment bank that fit with what I made.

It took me a minute, but I found the assignment I did. Promotional Flyer. DesignAssignments1521
