- 3. Outcome
Problem
Catholic Social Media commissioned a set of liturgical banners to accompany their seasonal and feast-day content distributed primarily through Facebook.
Many of the source images consisted of older religious artwork and paintings that were not prepared for modern digital formats.
After initial delivery, platform compression caused visible degradation: loss of detail, muddied color, and reduced legibility of both imagery and text.
The challenge became preserving dignity and clarity in sacred imagery despite aggressive compression and limited guidance from the platform itself.
What we did
- Produced a full set of liturgical banners aligned to the requested seasons and themes.
- Manually expanded and restored low-resolution imagery to meet modern size requirements, taking care to minimize visual artifacts.
- Adjusted color, contrast, and text treatment through testing to reduce quality loss after Facebook compression.
- Refined compositions to balance legibility with respect for the original artwork.
Outcome
A completed set of liturgical banners suitable for use across Catholic Social Media’s Facebook content.
The final banners maintain improved clarity and consistency compared to the original source material, even after platform compression.
