Role — Event Design, Brand Design, Environmental Graphics
The High School Sports Awards recognized student athletes from high schools across Utah. Working from an existing event logo, I was the sole designer responsible for the broader event system: stage graphics, medals, posters, hanging banners, hoodies and presentation design. I did not design the main event logo.
Client — Deseret News
Layered athlete photography, yellow panels and clear sponsor placements carried the visual system onto the stage. The same black, white and yellow treatment extended into photo backdrops and venue banners.
Photo backdrop — design mockup
Venue banner — installed application
Monochrome athlete photographs and angled yellow typography connect the poster series. Hanging banners adapt the same visual language to a different format, with black and yellow variations that keep the athlete’s name prominent.
JoJo Jourdon — Mr. Cross Country
Jane Hedengren — Ms. Cross Country
Bella Lewis — Ms. Tennis
Lewis Knecht — Mr. Soccer
Hanging banner — black variation
Hanging banner — yellow variation
The event treatment also needed to work at a smaller scale. Medals, awards graphics and athlete name badges carry the existing logo and consistent typography into the pieces participants received and wore.
Awards graphics — engraved application
Athlete name badges — ready for check-in
The presentation deck carried the same photography, yellow headers and white accents into award categories and nominee information. The screen photograph shows that treatment in use, alongside the printed event program.
