I limited it to four pages but made sure it covered the essentials: a general overview, character bios, and potential future episodes. To spice up the document &#8211; and prevent it from being too bland &#8211; I created some vector artwork to accompany the text.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.pivisuals.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/06\/UltraOverviewGraphic.png\" target=\"_blank\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-2151 size-medium\" title=\"A blast from  the past...\" src=\"http:\/\/www.pivisuals.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/06\/UltraOverviewGraphic-45x300.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"45\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.pivisuals.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/06\/UltraOverviewGraphic-45x300.png 45w, https:\/\/www.pivisuals.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/06\/UltraOverviewGraphic.png 150w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 45px) 100vw, 45px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>As you&#8217;d expect, this was done in Illustrator. Coming up with the design took some time. It wasn&#8217;t easy creating a graphic that wasn&#8217;t a still image from the animation. It needed to capture the essence of Ultra without focusing too much on a particular character or event. Plus it needed to be black and white to complement the text. Ultimately, I was making a logo, and I was happy with the end result. It was placed off to the left of each page:<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.pivisuals.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/06\/UltraSeriesOverviewPage.jpg\" target=\"_blank\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-2152 size-medium\" title=\"Spoiler alerts...\" src=\"http:\/\/www.pivisuals.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/06\/UltraSeriesOverviewPage-242x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"242\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.pivisuals.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/06\/UltraSeriesOverviewPage-242x300.jpg 242w, https:\/\/www.pivisuals.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/06\/UltraSeriesOverviewPage-828x1024.jpg 828w, https:\/\/www.pivisuals.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/06\/UltraSeriesOverviewPage.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 242px) 100vw, 242px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>The graphic ensured the pages weren&#8217;t too text heavy. Having just a bunch of paragraphs would have made the document much less appealing to read. Overall, I was very pleased with the layout template for each page. As a side note, the bullet points were also made in Illustrator, and I felt they were a nice touch.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I recently dusted off Ultra and created a quick document that summarized the intent of the project if it were to become a series (a mini-Pitch Bible of sorts).
