As a graphic designer with a passion for roller derby, I have had the pleasure of working with multiple leagues and collectives in the community to meet their design needs. I believe that good design can help to promote the sport and inspire new skaters. My work is often bright, colorful, and full of energy, perfectly capturing the spirit of roller derby. I also take great care to ensure that my designs are accurate and reflective of the specific league or team that I’m working with.
One of the most important aspects of designing for roller derby is capturing the energy and excitement of the sport. Roller derby is a fast-paced and physical sport, and the designs should reflect that. My designs use bold colors and strong lines to create a dynamic and exciting visual experience. I also incorporate elements of the sport itself, such as skates, wheels, and derby tracks, to help create a cohesive and authentic look.
Another important consideration when designing for roller derby is the target audience. Roller derby is a sport that is enjoyed by a wide range of people, from young people to adults. My designs need to appeal to a broad audience while still maintaining the integrity of the sport. I use a variety of design elements to appeal to a wide range of people, such as bright colors, fun fonts, and engaging imagery.
Finally, it is important to ensure that the designs are accurate and reflective of the specific league or team that I’m working with. Each league has its own unique identity and style, and I want my designs to reflect that. I take the time to research each league and team to understand their goals and objectives. I also work closely with the league or team to get their feedback on my designs.
I am proud to be a part of the roller derby community and to help promote the sport through my designs. I believe that roller derby is a great sport for people of all genders, and I am excited to be a part of its growth.
