[School Festival] Cover Illustration Ideas

An illustration focused on performances

An illustration that highlights the various attractions that color the event, clearly depicting what each activity is like to convey a lively atmosphere.

By showing in detail what kinds of attractions there are, it gives the impression of heightening anticipation for the cultural festival.

The expressions of the people engaging with the attractions are also an important point; by emphasizing their faces, you can feel that it’s a space where everyone can fully enjoy themselves.

The fact that the expressions toward the attractions aren’t limited to smiles also helps communicate that there are many different kinds of activities.

Near-futuristic illustration

How about creating a powerful, mysterious atmosphere with a near-futuristic illustration that incorporates machine parts and their intricate structures? A finely detailed composition of interlocking machinery can directly convey high quality.

In a robot-themed illustration, you can also sense the thought put into making the event a success and an image of moving toward the future.

Another key point is that the impression changes depending on which elements you make futuristic—setting the background in a near-future style suggests outward development, while making the central motif futuristic suggests inward-focused contemplation.

Create a dynamic illustration with perspective!

By creating an illustration that conveys depth using perspective, you can emphasize impact and dynamism.

A classic approach is to draw distant objects smaller and nearby objects larger.

If you depict elements as if they’re coming toward the viewer from afar, it can convey not only a sense of power but also excitement for the event.

By using perspective on the decorative parts of the central motif, you can give motion to the elements you want to highlight and enhance a lively, cheerful atmosphere.
