Comic Book Designs in E-Learning #541: Challenge | Recap
Most courses follow a standard, traditional template and design theme. And that’s for good reason.
When you’re designing for a general audience, you need something that looks clean and professional.
But sometimes you want to try something different. Maybe you’ve landed a custom project, or you just want to practice your design skills and try something new.
Comic book-themed courses are a great way to work with asymmetric layouts, bold colors, and creative typography while practicing your storytelling skills. Plus, they’re just plain fun to design. And that’s what this week’s challenge is all about!
🏆 Challenge of the Week
This week, your challenge is to create a comic book-inspired example or template. Try including a few slides so you can show how your design style carries through different parts of your content.
