The creative process for "A Hero's Guide to Defeating the USMLE," a project for Blueprint Test Prep, involved designing a visually engaging and informative book for aspiring medical professionals. The cover, pages, and illustrations were designed in a playful 8-bit style, infusing a sense of fun and approachability into the learning material. The use of blue, matching Blueprint's branding, provides a cohesive and recognizable look for their company - given that the 8-bit elements are outside of their usual style. The overall design aims to make the USMLE preparation journey more enjoyable and accessible, aligning with the theme of a heroic guide for success in medical exams.
