Pledge drives are crucial for public television stations.
Audiences must know that PBS Wisconsin is professional and inviting, but at the same time, cost-effective and responsible.
As the lead visual designer, the goal was to create a design that could leverage elements of the strong PBS National brand but with local Wisconsin flavor.
Under a constrained budget, we needed a design workflow that was intuitive and flexible for both experienced and temporary team members. For functionality, the design had to work with the equipment and team members available during a Pledge drive. The plan had to account for the variety of quality and timeliness of assets from PBS, NETA, and APT. Lastly, the set had to look great.
My past experiences have given me a broad knowledge of the production needs of such a large, collaborative project. This Pledge set and graphics package is flexible enough to support unforeseen production requests and beautiful enough to reflect the pride that Wisconsin has in its public television station.
"If you ever get tired of doing design work, can I hire you as our Project Manager? You have a gift!" "I thus nominate Jennifer R Hadley for a Nobel prize in Rocking Chemical Graphics!" "Andy just saw the piece and really liked it. He really enjoyed the graphics and said they made the story! Good job and thanks for rushing to get them done!" "It has been great working with you. I have always appreciated your thoughtfulness and methodical approach to problem solving.' "It was great working with you Jen. You're one of the most thorough folks I've ever come in contact with. You ask direct and logical questions and your overall work ethic is amazing."
