When graphics are shared or reposted on the main Stetson Athletics account, any inconsistency becomes much more noticeable. I created multiple versions of a lacrosse schedule graphic, one using a non-Stetson font that I personally liked more, and another using the official Stetson font. While I still prefer the first version from a design standpoint, the second version clearly fits better within the Stetson Athletics feed and looks more cohesive alongside other athletic graphics.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www2.stetson.edu\/creative-arts-internships\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/Screenshot-2026-02-03-at-12.00.00-PM.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"988\" height=\"682\" src=\"https:\/\/www2.stetson.edu\/creative-arts-internships\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/Screenshot-2026-02-03-at-12.00.00-PM.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-2904\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www2.stetson.edu\/creative-arts-internships\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/Screenshot-2026-02-03-at-12.00.00-PM.png 988w, https:\/\/www2.stetson.edu\/creative-arts-internships\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/Screenshot-2026-02-03-at-12.00.00-PM-300x207.png 300w, https:\/\/www2.stetson.edu\/creative-arts-internships\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/Screenshot-2026-02-03-at-12.00.00-PM-768x530.png 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 988px) 100vw, 988px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>This became especially clear when I saw the captains lacrosse post &amp; 13 Days coundown post I designed was reposted on the Stetson athletics account, I immediately noticed how much it stood out in a negative way due to the font difference. Seeing my work in that context made me more aware of how brand identity plays a huge role in perception.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www2.stetson.edu\/creative-arts-internships\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/Screenshot-2026-02-02-at-3.43.29-PM.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"674\" src=\"https:\/\/www2.stetson.edu\/creative-arts-internships\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/Screenshot-2026-02-02-at-3.43.29-PM-1024x674.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-2905\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www2.stetson.edu\/creative-arts-internships\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/Screenshot-2026-02-02-at-3.43.29-PM-1024x674.png 1024w, https:\/\/www2.stetson.edu\/creative-arts-internships\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/Screenshot-2026-02-02-at-3.43.29-PM-300x198.png 300w, https:\/\/www2.stetson.edu\/creative-arts-internships\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/Screenshot-2026-02-02-at-3.43.29-PM-768x506.png 768w, https:\/\/www2.stetson.edu\/creative-arts-internships\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/Screenshot-2026-02-02-at-3.43.29-PM-1536x1011.png 1536w, https:\/\/www2.stetson.edu\/creative-arts-internships\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/Screenshot-2026-02-02-at-3.43.29-PM.png 1938w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Access to the Stetson Athletics Style Guide<\/strong><strong><br><\/strong><strong> <\/strong>One reason some of the earlier posts, including the captains and countdown graphics (the \u201c13 Days\u201d post), did not use the correct fonts was simply because I did not have access to them yet. This week, Athletics finally shared the official Stetson Athletics style guide with me. Having access to this now I know it will make a huge positive difference in my future designs. I am glad I learned \/ realized this early on as I shift from strictly stetson lacrosse related graphics to all and any stetson athletics team as I continue this internship. Moving forward, I plan to focus more intentionally on maintaining consistent brand identity so that my graphics feel seamless when posted across any Stetson Athletics platform.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Overall, Week 3 helped me better understand the importance of branding, consistency, and thinking beyond personal design preferences.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Double Header Post &amp; Creative Brainstorming This week, I worked on a double header post and spent time brainstorming additional graphic and photography ideas to support the spring sports marketing plan.
