Hillside Family, Annual Report 2008
February 8, 2009
Hillside Family of Agencies decided to continue the theme from last year’s annual report, so of course I was happy to work with them again. The concept was “Believing is Growing”, and they decided to go with the concept of a child leading the way for growth and into a safe, positive environment. The 12×35 inch poster is a fun format, and this year we made the vertical composition into a growth chart — a little surprise for the family-recipients. The Ad agency also used elements from these images throughout the financial booklet. This is the approved sketches and color roughs:
Below are a few ideas I submitted during the concept development stage. I think it’s fun to see and share the unseen parts of process — what didn’t get used, but what helped the idea grow into the best finish.

Gorgeous! These are so cheerful and fun. I bet the client was thrilled. And I love the idea of the growth chart!
What did you use for your color comps for the pieces that went to final?
It’s cool to see the stuff that wasn’t used. :)

Jenny,
Our 2008 Hillside Annual Report has just started to make the rounds with our constituents; however, the feedback received so far has been overwhelmingly positive. “Just gorgeous,” said one staff member and another plans to hang the poster in the baby room of his expectant second child! You are a talented artist and our Hillside family has benefitted greatly from your creativity. “Yes!” the client is very thrilled (to Penny)! Sincerely, Jennifer Bacci, Director of Marketing, Hillside Family of Agencies
