Sport Oregon: Fuel The Future
Fuel The Future Key Art
For Sport Oregon’s annual Fuel The Future fundraising event, I collaborated with their brand marketing team to develop and create their revamped look for the year. The clean and modern design featured a textured gradient background, bold typography, microtext, and various linework to help frame up information. This project spanned across everything from different physical signage to print design, social media posts, and the event presentation deck.

Developed a design system and various layouts that could scale across varying amounts of information to keep everything feeling visually consistent

Crafted print materials for the event like meal cards, sponsor table signs, grant recipient certificates, and spruced up the program
Created various social media posts to help promote the event and its unique auctions, raffles and sponsors
Built out the event’s presentation deck featuring 50+ predesigned and templated slides
Social Media Posts
Live Auction Opportunities - Social Media Posts
In order to drive awareness for the event and encourage people in the community to attend for the chance at these exclusive items, we made these social posts for informational while still retaining room for imagery.

Event Signage & Graphics
Various Physical Signage - Falcon Boards
These 6ft tall boards are intentionally designed to be read with their tall height in mind. Each board is utilized in different ways to either display venue information, wayfinding or sponsor details.
Live Auction Opportunities - Presentation Deck
Since there were social posts and programing detailing the specifics of each experience, for the presentation screen during the auction, these slides we specifically designed to provide quick context for what was being actively bid on.
Event Footage
Featuring footage of the photo backdrop, brochure, deck presentation, sponsor wall, grant recipient certificates, menus, and table sponsor signs.
