Scenario
You’re a production manager at Primetime Pros, an event production company. You work in the design services team. Your job is to ensure quality control, making sure that the design services team uses proper file formats and output settings across a multitude of media platforms.
Primetime Pros has an important project that needs some promotional work done for them right away: Flow Show, a rock & hip-hop concert hosted by ZAP 95.7 (WZAP-FM). Unfortunately, your entire team is out sick with the flu. This means that you need to step in and produce all the necessary promo pieces with all the proper settings.
Thankfully, you did work for this concert last year. And, thankfully, your team had already created some of the individual photos and graphics that you’ll need. That will certainly help, but you’ll still be responsible for creating the following:
- Production process checklist
- Poster
- Social media post graphic
- Video ad
- 3D mockup of the VIP package
- Assess a collaboration technology solution
Instructions
To complete this project, you’ll need to do the following:
First, download this folder of assets.

Part #1: Production process checklist. This is a big project with a lot of components, and you don’t want to miss anything. To help avoid that, create a checklist for yourself that covers all the steps involved in image file prep, assembly, and output. A sample checklist for 3D is listed below. Use this as a guide and create three checklists, one each for print, web, and video. (They may have more and/or different steps than the 3D checklist.) Submit
one Microsoft Word DOCX file with all three checklists in it.
- Determine the output format and size.
- Add a 3D object to the scene.
- Collect and reformat graphics.
- Apply the reformatted graphics to the various parts of the 3D object.
- Save the project file.
- Export image file at desired quality.
Part #2: Poster. Create a poster for the show that has all the same content as the sample image below. It doesn’t need to match the design, but it does need to use the color scheme of magenta, black, and white.
Finished poster
- Edit the provided photo for 300ppi at the final size and CMYK color mode. In either Illustrator or InDesign, create a poster that is 11 x 17 inches (portrait). Include the ZAP 95.7 logo and all of the provided text.
- When you’ve finished the design, create a package folder with the fonts, images, native application file, and PDF file. (If using Illustrator, you’ll need to manually include the PDF file into the package folder.) ZIP the package and submit.
