How to create the perfect mockup? Just as Professor Utonium had a recipe and an X ingredient to create the perfect girls, you can also have a secret recipe to create your ideal mockup!
How to create a perfect mockup?
First, you need to know what it is; A mockup is a model or prototype used to quickly and realistically represent the final result of a design. It is used in various areas such as graphic design, web design, among others. The goal of a mockup is to use minimal resources and time to generate a representation of the final project, allowing for informed decisions about the design before its production or implementation.
Now, knowing this, we need to know what the 3 main ingredients will be, plus the secret ingredient to create the perfect mockup. Ready? Here we go!
Define the purpose and objective of the mockup and gather necessary elements: Before starting, this will be the sugar in the ingredients to create your mockup. So, think about what you want to achieve with the mockup. Is it for a presentation, a client, or a personal project? This will help you focus on the right details and gather the necessary elements to include in your mockup.
Choose the right tool to design the structure and composition of the mockup: There is nothing more important in these ingredients than the flour, and of equal importance, there are many tools to create your mockups; Photoshop, Illustrator, Figma, etc. Having the tool, you’ll need to choose how you want it to look. Is it for social media, a website, or an app? Always make sure that what you’re going to do is in line with your vision and with the regulations that each one employs.
Add the elements, details, review, and adjust the mockup: And the colors! Don’t forget the colors, elements, details! After you have your design, add those little things that are missing, but forget about those that make the design feel overloaded.
Export and share the mockup: And finally, the secret ingredient “X” of all this will be to export your mockup in high resolution. Remember: high resolution. This is SUPER important if it’s going to be a printed element or if it’s going on social media. If it’s a website, remember to save and share the link with your development team.
And so, Professor Utonium created the perfect girls, and We Build It taught you how to create an interesting, functional, and visually appealing mockup.
