Elizabeth Line Redesign
RESPONSIBILITES
Motion Graphics
Camera Tracking
After Effects
The weather icon designs were made by Sihan Liu, who’s icon designs I used for this project.
I mean no disrespect to whoever made this, but personally -
I never liked this infomation screen on the Elizabeth Line.
The screen has a lot of area space, and the current design feels too wasteful with how it lays out its information. Lots of changing screens, broken sentences, and staggered information.
For me, I believe that the key to a great design, is to create covenience and solutions, within given limitations. And I just KNEW that this could be done here.
So I took a crack at redesigning it.
What do you think?
ADDITIONAL TFL ICONOGRAPHY
I also took the liberty to include the step-free access information by referring the TfL Tube Map, so wheelchair users can know what to expect with manoeuvrability when they arrive at their station.
ELIZABETH LINE TRAIN ICON
This Elizabeth Line train icon you see here, I drew in Affinity Designer.
At first I made this colour version to layover in the motion graphics comp, however in the final scene it failed to stand out to my eye - as it was clashing against the mixture of the other vibrant, bright colours.
I referred back to the original design, and recoloured it to a pure black colour, which achieved the desired result.
