For a recent Graphic Design job interview, I was asked to create a billboard for Taco John’s using the following direction: "We need to design a billboard for a new store opening. The size needs to be 22 feet wide by 10 feet tall. Please design in 10th scale in CMYK and supply as a PDF. Reference the included design guidelines PDF for general look and feel. Download the assets and brand guidelines from the provided link. Text to include on the billboard: ‘Now Open 1102 Broken Pine Way in Timberland Exit 346.’ We need to make sure to include the Taco Johns logo and some food imagery. Which images to use and how to use them is up to the designer.”
The design I created below was well-received among the people from the company. To quote one of them - I “pretty much nailed it.”
