Solutions
Developing materials, such as, driver handbooks, educational videos, and in-truck deliverables.
For the materials marketed toward the drivers I chose to do a straight-forward simplistic style. Showing off the trucks was the most important aspect. These photos were intended for online use, as well as promotional materials.
For the other materials I kept a clean style, incorporating the company's colors. The design of blurred backgrounds and circles indicate speed and efficiency. Overall the design was made to be be bold and clear.
