Calendar 2021: 1st quarter

Slide Content

The slide presents a calendar for the first quarter of 2021, detailing the months of January, February, and March. Each month shows dates with specific days highlighted to represent four distinct projects. Project 1 is signified by a teal square, Project 2 by an orange square, Project 3 by a purple square, and Project 4 by a green square. Days involved in the projects are marked in their respective colors, indicating when a project is active or scheduled. Additionally, some dates are circled to emphasize particular days, likely key dates or milestones within the projects.

Graphical Look

• Background: A photograph of a blurred office setting with items such as a laptop, paperwork, and possibly personal effects.
• Title: Bold, capitalized text aligned to the left in a light font color, making it stand out against the darker background.
• Monthly headers: Three colored bars—teal, indigo, and light blue—each with white capitalized text indicating the month.
• Date grid: A translucent dark overlay containing white text for days of the week and dates. Some cells are highlighted to correspond with the project colors mentioned earlier.
• Project keys: Four colored squares (teal, orange, purple, green), each with a label indicating a project number, placed at the bottom of the slide.
• Circles: Two circles in a light outline appear over dates on the calendar grid, which helps to draw attention to those specific days.

The overall aesthetic of the slide is modern and business-like, with a clear, functional design that uses color to differentiate tasks or projects. The visual elements are well-organized, enabling easy reading and quick comprehension of the schedule.
