Campaign Legal Center
Fighting for Our Democracy
Challenge
Campaign Legal Center, a nonpartisan organization focused on tackling issues threatening American democracy, contacted Eighty2degrees to partner on several timely reports. The first of these reports aimed to fight misinformation in electing the president and was released just before the 2024 Presidential election. The second report highlighted the FEC—Federal Election Commission—shedding crucial light on how their actions fuel big money’s political influence and silence everyday Americans.
Approach
Both reports use CLC’s branding—from collage-style imagery and patterning to its signature color palettes—in thoughtful, intentional ways. “Electing the President” utilized small collages as a navigational tool to create a step-by-step guide to the process. A larger collage was created for the cover, indicative of a timeline. Additionally, infographics coordinating with each step in the guide provided a high-level overview of the entire process. “From Dysfunctional to Destructive” used bold, contrasting colors and angled patterns to emphasize the issue’s urgency and create a sense of unease. Infographics, collages, and a clean grid structure cater to “swimmer” and “skimmer”-style readers.
