Poster Design
We were tasked with making a poster design for physical ads around campus. We designed this poster and the rest of the team hung up posters around S&T. Stylistically kept with the brand of a glitchy brand, so we conveyed it by glitching the Pickhacks logo.

Banner and Name Tags
The name cards were designed so the judges, hacker, volunteer, organizer, and sponsors could identify each other at a glance during the event. The banners were decided for an easy indication of where things are located.

Reflection
Due to the on-going global pandemic and the concerns surrounding coronavirus (COVID-19), we’re sad to push back the event to the PickHacks 2020 to the spring 2021 semester with more information to come with the format and schedule. To learn more about PickHacks check out our website.
