TASK 5

Commission work is a big part of getting you recognized as a graphic designer, and one of the most often requests is a blog banner. Not only do blog banners require your graphic skills, but also test your ability to execute themes, fonts and layouts.

For this task, each of you needs to design a blog banner for my legendary blog Haus of X - but that's not all! The banner must include two models; Sary.Babyface and tolady and it must also be black and white.

(Current banner for TGV, also a previous Haus of X banner)

Here are some guidelines for this task

• Banner must a landscape image.
• You must only use both the two models provided. (To clarify, they are Sary.Babyface and tolady)
• The graphic must be black and white/greyscale.
• You must remove any Stardesign Hair from the models, this includes any face shading/makeup/add-ons created in Stardesign Hair. 
•  

Everything else is entirely up to you! The banner can be headshots, midshots, or bodyshots and you can decide on whatever outfits/makeup/hair you wish, but make sure you take into consideration the minimalistic and edgy style of Haus of X.

The winner of this task will have their banner displayed on the Haus of X blog for 24 hours during the release of X Magazine: XIV - so the heat is on.


Your deadline for this task is Monday 6th October 2014. As ever, if you require an extension, please contact me ASAP.

Good luck!
