With a specialized background in disc golf tournament design, I've crafted hot stamps, event flyers and logos that capture the dynamic spirit of the sport while meeting strict technical specifications.
My B.A. in Fine Arts provides a strong foundation in design principles and my proficiency in HTML, CSS, and JavaScript allows me to bring designs to life across digital platforms.
While disc golf design remains my specialty, I am ready to apply my technical precision and artistic vision to new industries and challenges.
The hot stamping process involves pressing a metal die into a heated foil, resulting in unique design requirements. Though precise specifications vary by manufacturer, these general guidelines are common:
Large, solid areas cause air bubbles, so textures must be applied to break them up. There is also a strict upper limit on line weights.
Multi-color designs require separate stamps and add production costs, so most hot stamp designs are limited to one-color.
Small, negative spaces may "bridge" during the stamping process, so textures must be carefully crafted and text must exceed a minimum size.
The center sprue of a golf disc may vary in thickness and cause issues during stamping, so there is often a requirement to keep this area clear.
