New York Knicks

Client: New York Knicks-MSG
My Role: Lead Graphic Designer

About this Project:
The New York Knicks-MSG sought to create an eye-catching newspaper full-page ad and full-color foldable insert aligned with their local TV and radio advertising campaigns. The primary goals were to create a visually appealing design that captures attention, remains consistent with their brand identity, and is adaptable for point-of-purchase placement. Additionally, the design needed to consider the maximum ink density allowed by the newspaper to ensure optimal color vibrancy.

The Challenge:
The project posed several challenges, including developing a cohesive design that aligns with the brand’s local TV and radio advertising campaigns, creating a versatile layout suitable for point-of-purchase placement, and achieving vibrant colors while adhering to the newspaper’s maximum ink density limitations.

Solution:
As the lead graphic designer, I tackled these challenges by carefully studying the brand’s advertising campaigns to create a consistent design that resonates with their target audience. I developed a flexible layout that could be easily adapted for various point-of-purchase placements, ensuring the design remained effective and visually appealing in different contexts. To address the newspaper’s ink density limitations, I utilized my knowledge of color management and print production techniques to optimize the design, achieving the desired color vibrancy without exceeding the maximum ink density.

Results:
The completed full-page newspaper ad and full-color foldable insert design successfully achieved the project’s goals. The designs were visually captivating, cohesive with the brand’s local TV and radio advertising campaigns, and adaptable for point-of-purchase placements. By optimizing the color usage within the newspaper’s ink density limitations, the final designs exhibited vibrant colors that stood out, effectively capturing the attention of the target audience and contributing to the overall success of the New York Knicks-MSG advertising campaign.
