✰┊SDC Feb '25 ~ Weekly #1 :: SDC Logo Challenge

—— ✰

~ ( Introduction )

Welcome to the SDC logo challenge! Loosely inspired by the Daily Logo Challenge, we’ll be creating various logos throughout the week. Alright, I’d hate to keep you waiting for any longer, so let’s get into it!

——

Part : ( 1 ) ~ ( 4 logos )

For this first part of the weekly, head on over to this project, which will include a list of prompts for four separate logos respectively. Refer to the project for what you’ll be using on your logos!

:: Logo 1 - Color and Value
Set a random number picker to pick between numbers 1 and 12. This will determine the base color of the logo. Then, roll a dice, or use the number picker again (this time between 1 and 6). This will determine the shade of color you will be using. Of course, you are allowed to use multiple shades in your design, but try your best to keep the main elements within the spectrum of color and shade randomness has assigned ^^

:: Logo 2 - Restaurants
Set your trusty random picker to pick between numbers 1 and 5. This will determine the type of restaurant you are making a logo for- your only restrictions are the vibes you’d want to give off for your selected restaurant type!

:: Logo 3 - Letters or Words
Set a random number picker between 1 and 2 (if you’re getting bored of just random numbers, you can also flip a coin- but Yume for one would most definitely drop the coin, so do it at your own risk <3). This will tell you whether to use a word or letter as the base of your design! Once again, you have the freedom of design and can add any other text as you wish, this is simply the starting point and main element of your logo.

:: Logo 4 - Conveying Feelings
Set your random picker between 1 and 6 (i suppose you could roll a dice again, if you’re fancy :0). Hopefully you know the drill by now- just refer to the slide and design a logo that corresponds with the vibe/feeling stated behind the chosen number!

——

Part : ( 2 ) ~ ( Poster )

Alright, it’s time to put our randomizers to rest (finally!!) and continue on with the next part of our weekly. For this next section, you’ll be picking either one of your previous logos! The only requirement is that your logo was created for a company or event of sorts that you can advertise, as you’ll be making a poster to promote it! Keep the design somewhat cohesive with the original logo, and make sure to include your logo in the final poster as well. Other than that, do whatever your design mind desires- just make it attractive!

——

Part : ( 3 ) ~ ( Merchandise )

Of course, every good company and event has merchandise, whether it’s within our budgets or completely outside <3. For the last part of this weekly, design a few products that can go with your previously set setting and logo. This can include mugs, t-shirts, pencils, or anything else that makes sense for the company/event! Simply plastering the logo across everything and calling it a day is not allowed >:0 Add a little twist and variation to each product so there’s something for everyone. Create at least four different merchandise items to move on to the next section!

——

Part : ( 4 ) ~ ( Merchandise Briefs )

Now that you have your items, write a short, 50-100 word description of why you chose the item and how you incorporated the original logos and designs, as well as how you changed them up to fit the specific product! Be sure to have separate descriptions for each of your items. You should have at least 200 words from this section, if you’re doing the minimum four!

——

~ ( Conclusion )

And congratulations, you’ve completed the weekly! Give yourself a pat on the back and take a well-deserved break. Additionally, make sure you’ve completed all parts of the weekly before submitting your creations to the Main Cabin!

Part 1 :: four logos created based off random prompts from this project
Part 2 :: a poster based off one of the previously designed logos
Part 3 :: at least four different merchandise items for your company/event
Part 4 :: descriptions for each of your merch items, 50-100 words for each

This weekly is due February 14th, at midnight UTC, and is worth 2200 pixels! Please submit your completed weeklies before then- If you are in need of an extension, contact Yume on her profile with your reasoning as well as how much extra time you’ll need. That’s it for now- once againl, great job on making it this far! See you in the next weekly <3

✰┊Scratch Design Camp ~ Activities + Records

✰┊SDC Feb '25 ~ Daily List

—— ✰

1 :: Welcome to camp, everybody! We hope you’re just as excited as we are for the start of camp, but first- introductions! Introduce yourself in the Main Cabin, and include your nickname, preferred pronouns, and timezone if you’re comfortable. Share a few facts about yourself if you’d like!

2 :: Happy first official SDC daily day! For today, we’ll be creating mood boards! To get started, pick a color, any color. Then, pick another- experiment with different color combinations to find your favorite. Using those two colors, you’ll create a mood board following any theme that comes to mind. Share your mood board in the Main Cabin to earn 200 pixels for your cabin!

3 :: First, post a comment (or as many as you'd like ^^) on the Main Cabin with a color, an object, and an adjective (eg. blue, pencil, adventurous). These can be as silly as you'd like- be creative! Then, look through your fellow campers' responses and choose one. Then, you'll create a logo for a company manufacturing the stated object using the color and adjective given. This daily is worth 165 pixels!

4 :: Today we'll be taking our names into account as well- Yes the nicknames we all go by! Take each letter, and jot down the first thing that comes to mind starting with that letter (eg. let's say my letter is D, and I think of dolphins). If your nickname is under three characters, pick two items for each letter! Using those elements, design a banner with your name on it for 160 pixels.

5 :: Log on to your favourite design platform and set a timer for one minute. Use that minute to dig for graphics and images, and insert whatever you find speaks to you- do this fast, no second-guessing! Once you've checked that you have at least 20 elements on your canvas, try creating WITHOUT deleting anything (you're still allowed to add text from here on)! This daily is worth 200 pixels, plus an extra 50 for using over 30 graphics.

6 :: Put your go-to playlist on shuffle, and see what song comes up! Without referencing the original album cover, create a new cover for the song. Try to capture the feel and emotion of the song, and make sure your album cover is in square dimensions! Completing this daily can earn 180 pixels for your cabin.

7 :: Have you ever looked back at an old project of yours, and instantly start critiquing the thumbnail? (…I know I have.) For today's daily, recreate the thumbnail for an old project of yours (or simply one that didn't have a thumbnail to start, if you can't find an old one to work with) to earn 210 pixels for your cabin!

8) / 9 :: I'm sure we all have our favourite colors- So for the first day of this bi-daily, pick your absolute favourite color (Make sure to save the hexcode! It'll come in handy later). Using that color, fill half a page with a mood board or collage with said color as a background. Feel free to add any decorative elements and text, if that's to your liking! Come back tomorrow to finish up the bidaily and submit your creation for points ^^

8 / (9) :: Welcome to the second day of this bi-daily! Yesterday, we created half a mood board/collage with your favourite color. (Don't worry if you missed it- just check the Activity Records linked below to catch up!) To finish off the other half, simply use an online tool or a drawing software to find the complimentary (opposite) color of the color you have chosen. Just like last time, set this new color as your background for the second half and finish off the collage. This bidaily is worth 450 pixels!

10 :: It’s Design Dare Day! Post a comment in the Main Cabin asking for design dares and complete them! These can include timed challenges, oddly specific prompts, and more. Your imagination’s the limit! This daily isn’t worth any pixels, but we assure you it’ll be tons of fun either way. <3

11 :: We all know SDC stands for Scratch Design Camp, but what other meanings can you come up with? Silly Dancing Cats, Slightly Dry Cactus… the possibilities are endless! For today’s daily, you’ll be awarded 220 points for designing something based off another meaning of the abbreviation ‘SDC’. Feel free to drop some ideas in the comments if you have a few to spare!

12 :: Come up with a design prompt for yourself, or find a random one online. Using that prompt, create a design within 1 minute. Then, create another design with the same prompt, without referencing the previous, but within 5 minutes. Lastly, reusing the prompt one last time, create a design within 15 minutes. This daily is worth 240 points!

13 :: Plaster the back of a laptop (a virtual one, of course, no irl laptops will be harmed in the partake of this daily <3) with any stickers of your wishing. Add at least 15 different stickers to your dream laptop sticker collage to earn 130 points for your cabin!

14 :: the mbcc daily that yume forgot to track whoops :,DD

(15) / 16 :: Welcome to the second bi-daily of this session! We’ll be making movie posters this weekend ^^ To start off, find at least five pre-existing posters that you feel inspired by, and create a small collage (around 5 images) for each of those posters, but try not to use images from the actual movie. Make sure to include the actual poster in the collage as well!

15 / (16) :: Welcome to the second day of our second bi-daily! Take out your movie collages from yesterday (Don't worry if you missed it- just check the Activity Records linked below to catch up!), and pick two of the five that speak to you the most. Using those two collages, combine both concepts to create a poster for your very own movie! This bidaily is worth 480 points!

18 :: Put down a book title of your creation, an author name (you can make one up, whether it’s for yourself or an OC, or use a real-life author!) and its respective genre in the Main Cabin comments, and claim someone else’s title. Create a book cover and share it to earn 270 pixels for your cabin!!

25 :: Use at least 20 different elements to decorate your very own SDC wreath! Simply insert a text box with the three letters (or use the costume hidden inside the project linked below) and add your graphics over it, making sure to cover every part of the letter visible. Let your creativity guide you- there’s no requirement to make your wreath out of plants, anything works! This daily is worth 250 pixels.

✰┊SDC Aug '25 ~ Daily List

——

1 :: August has begun, a month initially dedicated to the emperor of Rome, Augustus, but to us, merely the first month of potato harvesting and self-planting! Campers, welcome to the seventh session of Scratch Designing Camp, brought to us in the hottest month of the year. Today is the day we plant ourselves in the campgrounds to take root and grow into a full potato by the end of the month. Head into the comments and introduce yourselves with your nickname, pronouns, and timezone (if you're a hot potato ;D). Include some trivia about yourself to make your roots set deeper!

2 :: Welcome to the second daily (and first one for pixels :0) of this session! Using a color of your choosing, create a monochromatic (same color, different shades) mood board with at least 10 different images for 200 pixels!

3 :: Bringing back a favorite from last session, the SDC acronym daily! SDC is the abbreviation of Scratch Design Camp, but what other meanings can you come up with? Summer’s Delicious Cookies, Sufficiently Decisive Cooperation, Sleep Deprived Conversations… Come up with a meaning of your own and use it as a design prompt. Completing this daily can award you with 210 pixels for your cabin!

4 :: Welcome, designers, to the first-ever Design Duels of SDC (or, as Blau would prefer to call them, “Duels of The Fateful Designs”)! Head on over to link for more details on how duels work, as well as participating for yourself. Best of luck, warriors!

5 :: And would you look at that, the daily… has turned into potatoes. For the time being, however, the Memory Book Cover Contest has just opened up! Simply head on over to this project for further details on how to enter: (link here) We’ll be back tomorrow with a daily for pixels- Happy designing!

6 :: Post any three words in the Main Cabin, and then claim two sets to use as design prompts! Be sure to incorporate all six words into your design, and submit your final creation to take home 240 pixels for your cabin!

7 :: Many consider 7 to be a lucky number- whether or not you believe in number superstitions (or luck in general ; )), head on over to this project: (link here) for a list of random words and prompts, as well as further instructions on how you’ll be determining yours for today’s daily. Using all of your assigned prompts, create a design and submit it in the Main Cabin to take home 350 pixels for your cabin! May the odds be ever in your favor <33



8 :: In celebration of International Cat Day, today's daily will involve creating any design you'd like featuring cats! A poster for a cat cafe, a banner with cat motifs, perhaps an infographic on various domestic or wild cats, or even designing a new product for cats. Submit your design in the Meown Cabinyan for an absolutely tasty 240 pixels = ^ - ^ =!

9 :: Welcome to Day 1 of our first bidaily this session! For today, we’ll begin by brainstorming. First, create a board with 12 different color swatches. Then, make a list of, you guessed it, 12 design prompts that you can do based off of your current color palette. Make sure to number both lists from 1-12 respectively, and keep them somewhere safe so you can access them again tomorrow (your design folder is a great option). Have fun!

10 :: We hope you’ve had a good night’s rest ^^ Take out your lists from yesterday, and recall your sleep schedule- how many hours you’ve slept is how many of the 12 colors you need to use, and the hour of which you woke up would be the prompt number you have to follow (For instance, if you slept for 9 hours and woke up at 7 a.m., you’d be choosing 9 colors out of the 12 you had gathered, and using the prompt which is listed at #7 on your list). Create a design using these elements in Scratch project resolution (960 x 720 px is a common size) for 450 pixels!

11 :: I’m sure most of us have done a keyboard spam- no worries if not, for you’ve probably at least seen one (they usually look something like this: JHKADASHKJA) For today’s activity, we’ll be making use of these much chaotic keyboard spams to create something truly one of a kind. Head on over to link to get started- let the keyspam chaos begin ; ) This daily is worth 330 pixels!

12 :: Come up with the tracklist and title of your dream mini album, consisting of anywhere from 4-6 songs from all different artists, and create an album cover for it! Your cover should be in square dimensions and include your album title. Optionally, you can add your tracklist beside your finished cover to serve as a promotional image. If you’d like, maybe also use your song selection and cover to make a playlist for your collection :0? Share your album and the songs you picked in the Main Cabin for 360 pixels!

13 :: Procrastination potatoes? Those won’t stand a chance, as today is Design Dare Day! Post a comment in the Main Cabin asking for dares- These can be anything you’d like, whether it be oddly specific prompts, timed challenges, or drawing inspiration from unlikely sources. This daily isn’t worth any pixels, but we do encourage being as silly as you wish : D

14 :: Think up one product you like/use often in your daily life, and comment what it is in the Main Cabin. Then, choose someone else’s product and design an advertisement in the form of a social media post to promote your selected product. This daily is worth 280 pixels!



15 :: Find an online color wheel and set the color combination to ‘triadic’. Then, experiment with color combinations until you’ve found a triad you like. Using this set of three colors, design a logo for a brand of your creation. Completing this daily entitles a delicious 360 pixels to add to your cabin total!

16 :: Are you hungry yet? Well, not to fear, as today’s daily revolves around none other than… food! Take your favorite food, and create an advertisement to sell your food item. Make it eye-catching, and be sure to add descriptors to really get people hooked! Once you’re done, feel free to promote your advertisement in the Main Cabin, and don’t forget to go ahead and claim 320 pixels while you’re at it.

17 :: Today, we invite you to take a visit to our dear hosts’ profiles (you can find them at the bottom of this description!) and pick one line as inspiration for a mood board or collage containing at least 10 images! Share your creation in the Main Cabin along with your selected quote and you’ll be awarded with 340 pixels (plus a delicious Summer cookie or brownie ^^) for your hard work <3

18 :: The rain is pouring incessantly outside the library window, pattering against the sidewalk and forming puddles in the bleary afternoon. You see a gentle-faced girl hurry through the shower and into the library foyer, no umbrella or hood to keep the invasive droplets out. Ah, Summer! Why don't you make our beloved host's day with a beautiful banner and some kind words? The motifs of the design should be some of these: #bcd4f5, flowers, rain, books, and light academia. This daily is worth 360 pixels, but each ounce of thought is worth so much more to our birthday girl. Let's spread some warmth!

19 :: Today is World Photography Day! First, take a photo. This can be anything from outdoor scenery to something as simple as a mug on your table, try to stylize your setting and test out a few options- take the best shot! Once you've got your photos, pick the one (but feel free to use more than one, if you'd like) that speaks to you the most and use it as the base of your design. Submit your creation to earn 380 pixels for your cabin!

20 :: Pick one to two lines you like from a song of your choice, and make yourself a desktop wallpaper with those lyrics! Add any images and graphics to suit your taste, but just enough that it won't be too distracting in case you do end up using it! Create three separate wallpapers with lyrics from three different songs and share them in the Main Cabin for a total of 240 pixels!

21 :: Dating all the way back to the August 2021 session of SDC, we're bringing back the Generator Daily! Head on over to the project linked below to generate a set of different design elements and parameters. Make sure to screenshot your generations to submit with your finished designs! And we'll do this… hmm. Oh, of course! Four times, since it's been four years since the first generator daily! This daily is worth 420 pixels.



22 :: The daily today focuses on symmetry! Create a design that involves symmetry and submit it to the Main Cabin to earn 220 pixels for your cabin!

Additionally, here's your friendly reminder that submissions for the Memory Book Cover Contest (linked below) close by the end of today (a 24 hour extension can be granted for any pressing reasons). Submitting any amount of entries can earn you an extra 60 pixels for your cabin, so don't forget to claim your pixels if you haven't done so yet!

23~24 :: Choose a type of weather, such as rain (;D) or snow, and make a collage (using graphics instead of pictures) based off of it! Submit your collage to the Main Cabin for 250 pixels!

25~26 :: Welcome to our second bi-daily this session, SDC’s first-ever Design Swap! Head on over to the project linked below for further details and how to participate!

Additionally, voting for the Memory Book Cover Contest has just opened up! Head on over to link and cast your votes for the front and back covers of this session's Memory Book. These close when camp ends and will only take a minute or two, so it'd probably be best to do so earlier since today's bi-daily part is relatively light <3

27 :: Welcome to Day 2 of the Design Swap! Those who have put in a design request yesterday should each have been assigned another camper's order. And now, based on your recipient's request, it's your time to create a design for them! Once you've completed the order, submit it in the Main Cabin to collect 360 points for your cabin. Have fun, and don't forget to also send your design to the person who requested it!

28 :: Void. Null. Nothing. In the visual world, it'd be represented by the hex code #000000, the purest form of black and the image exuding mystery and all things dark. Today marks, I daresay, one of the most important dailies: the revolt against Yume epitome of sunless freedom. Listen to a song or read a story related to or about the color black, and create the first design that comes to mind for 280 pixels. It can be a logo, an album cover, aesthetic set- anything so long as you use #000000 as the main color. Bonus: Contact @28thDimension and @QueenQuasi with your creation! They'd love to see it.



29 :: Did you know that “HIGH PRESSURE WASHING MACHINE” contains exactly 29 characters, including spaces? (We didn't either… not until coming across it while brainstorming the daily list, that is!) For today's daily, design your very own high pressure washing machine. Label the various parts of your washing machine, and include any features, as otherworldly or as wacky as you'd like. What will you create? Share your (high pressure) design in the Main Cabin to claim 290 pixels (and a laundry basket)!

30 :: As we're nearing the end of camp, I'm sure we’ve all created some designs we're proud of, and some that we're… still on the fence over deciding whether we like or not. For 240 pixels, take any daily prompt you've previously done (the Daily List is attached in the “Links” section for your reference), and redo it. Maybe you had another idea you didn't end up using, or you just couldn't get a good set of prompts from either of the “random” dailies? The choice is yours, so have fun with it!

✰┊SDC Aug '25 ~ Weekly #1: Sticker Pack Creation

——

Introduction

Hello, designers, and welcome aboard the first weekly of the session! Throughout this upcoming week, you’ll be creating your very own sticker pack to promote a message of your choice. I’m sure we’re all eager to start designing, so let’s not stall for any longer and get into it!

——

Part 1 - Theme and Message

For this first part of our weekly, we’ll begin by brainstorming any possible ideas for a theme you’d like your sticker pack to revolve around. You want your stickers to promote a message, whether that’d be related to climate change, peace, or anything else you come up with. It could be as serious or as silly as you prefer (yes, you are allowed to make a sticker pack promoting the nutritious value of potatoes), but please ensure that it fits within the Scratch Community Guidelines and won’t be offensive to anyone on or off the site. Come up with a list of 4-5 ideas, then choose one you’d like to continue with!

Part 2 - Brainstorming

Now that you’ve gotten your theme, it’s time to start coming up with any ideas you may have for the stickers themselves! Whether that be solely graphic or text-based, or some with a mix of both, include a variety of options! You’re free to take inspiration from external sources, but please don’t copy off an existing design exactly. Create simple pencil or digital drafts, or combine reference elements, to draft up at least 10 different sticker ideas that correspond to your chosen theme. Once you’ve done that, you can come back here and head on in to the next part!

Part 3 - Sticker Design

It’s time to actually design our stickers! How you go with this part of the process is entirely up to what you have access to as well as what you’re comfortable with, so pick whichever option sounds better for you. You can either use your usual digital design software (common choices are Canva or Pixrl), draw your own stickers, or even use the Scratch vector editor to create vector stickers (most vinyl sticker designs are created on vector!). The only requirement is that they are done digitally. To finish this part of the weekly, create a finalized set of at least six different stickers, based off your concept sketches from Part 2.

Part 4 - Packing It Up

Now that you have your stickers on hand, the only thing left to do before they can go out and spread your message to the world is… packaging! Design a package for your stickers, whether that be a sticker sheet header design with your stickers below it, or for those who would prefer their stickers to be sticker flakes, the little bag with a cutout window (If you choose this option, please design the back of the package as well!). Once again, whatever you pick is your choice entirely, so have fun with it!

Part 5 - Sticker Pack Summary

We’re almost there! You’ve created your very own set of stickers, packaged them, and now it’s time to sell them out. To finish off this weekly, write in around 50-100 words a short brief of your design concept, the message you’re trying to convey, and how you believe your stickers have achieved that goal.

——

Conclusion

And that’s it! Congratulations, you’ve just designed your very own sticker pack. (If you have a printer at home, or have access to one via your local library, feel free to print out your sticker designs and perhaps put them to use that way as well, we’d love to see your creations!) Before you head on to the Main Cabin and collect your pixels, make sure you’ve completed all the required parts of the weekly.

Part 1 - a list of 4-5 theme ideas for your sticker pack, as well as having chosen one to be your final theme
Part 2 - concept sketches of at least 10 sticker ideas, done either on paper or digitally
Part 3 - a set of at least 6 final stickers created in digital form
Part 4 - packaging in the form of your choosing for your sticker pack/sheet
Part 5 - a 50-100 word brief describing your sticker pack’s theme and overall message

This weekly is due August 9th, at midnight UTC, and is worth 1500 pixels! Please submit your completed weeklies before then. If you are in need of an extension and have a pressing reason, extension requests are available and can be found on this project. And that’s it for now, we’ll see you again next week! <3

✰┊SDC Aug '25 ~ Weekly #2: SDC Logo Challenge (EXTREME Ver.)

——

Introduction

Welcome back, designers! If you were here last session, you might remember the SDC Logo Challenge weekly we had. Aha, you guessed it! This session, we're bringing it back, bigger and better than ever before.

This weekly starts on August 10th at 00:00 UTC–we’d like to ask that you please do not begin working on the below activities until the above mentioned time, just to keep things fair for everyone. Now, grab onto your seat and be prepared to whip up a bunch of logos–we're in for quite the wild ride!

——

Part 1 - Odd Numbered

For this first set of logos, look no further than your handy companion–that's right, we're talking about the random number generator we all know and love. To get ourselves started, generate three numbers: one between the range of 1-10, the next between 11-20, and the last between 21-40 (You didn't think we'd only go by increments of 10 up to 30, did you?). Once you've gotten your numbers, head on over to this project and take a look at the first slide. Match your number with its corresponding element or design parameter and incorporate them into a logo of your creation. Repeat the process until you have completed three logos using this method. Best of luck–you'll find out soon enough that you might just need it ;).



Part 2 - Even More Numbered

A die has six sides. Ah, what a pleasant coincidence it is indeed, for SDC has had six past sessions (And if you're convinced I'm lying about what seems to be the work of impossible chance purely for the sake of an activity, just check the Records Forum). Go ahead, find yourself a die, any die–physical or virtual is entirely up to you, and roll it! The second slide of the same project from before contains a list of each session and its theme. Your task is to create camp logos for two of these sessions–these should include either the words “Scratch Design Camp” or the acronym “SDC”, along with session (e.g. “August 2021”), and designed around each session's listed theme. If you're feeling stuck, feel free to refer to the Records Forum for links to past Main Cabins and projects to use as inspiration. You'll be ready to move on to the next section once you've made logos for two sessions (i.e. rolled the dice twice, or perhaps even more if you rolled a certain number more than once), as well as one extra for any other session of your choice in which the odds may not have favored, totalling three logos from this section. Have fun!



Part 3 - Promoting Potatoes

Now that we’ve taken a trip back to previous sessions, it’s time to come back to the wonderful time of the present and create something for the occasion! This session’s theme is Becoming Potatoes - whether that be the song, or quite literally the action of becoming potatoes. Making use of the potato motif, create a logo that advertises anything about this deliciously starchy vegetable, whether it’s an event, a farm, or anything else - just as long as it’s potato-related in some way or another! Once you have your logo, write a short advertisement between 150-200 words to accompany your logo design and further promote our beloved potatoes. We’re almost there, keep going! <3



Part 4 - Phrase Set

Welcome to the last part of this weekly! To finish off the (Extreme) SDC Logo Challenge, pick a sentence or phrase that goes anywhere from 12 to 24 words (of course, you’re more than welcome to do more, but that’d be a lot of work so just remember to not stress yourself out too much <3) and create individual logos for each word. You must use up every last word of your chosen sentence! A grid template (with just enough squares to fill the minimum 12 logos ^^) can be found on the last slide of the project, although you are free to create your own as well.

——

Conclusion

Congratulations, designers! You’ve done it - you’ve completed the SDC Logo Challenge, extreme edition! Give yourself a pat on the back and get some well-deserved rest - you’ve earnt it <3 Before you go and turn in what is probably a huge pile of logos, here’s a checklist to make sure you’ve gotten everything you need done:

Part 1 - 3 logos created using randomly selected design parameters with reference to this project
Part 2 - 3 SDC logos based off the theme of two sessions at random and one of your choice respectively
Part 3 - A logo to promote potatoes in any context alongside a 250-200 word advertisement to go with it
Part 4 - A set of one-word logos that form a phrase that is at least 12 words in length

If you have successfully completed all of the above, you’re all set to go! Submit your completed challenge to the SDC Main Cabin to claim a delicious 2000 pixels for your cabin. This weekly is due August 16th at 11:59 p.m. UTC, so be sure to get it in by then ^^ If you are in need of an extension due to any unforeseen circumstances, you can submit a request on this project. And that’s it for this weekly, come back next week for yet another set of design challenges!

✰┊Scratch Design Camp ~ Activities + Records

sdc december 2025 ♡₊˚‧ leader apps (forum ver.)
project version: https://scratch.mit.edu/projects/1220637665/

❀ : ┈┈ ‧₊˚ ♡ ₊˚‧ ┈┈ : ❀

Hello designers! Welcome to the start of another session <3 A new school year is starting in Scratch Design College, and that calls for new dorm captains :00 If you’re looking to lead a cabin dorm this session, you’re in the right place! But before anything else, please make sure you’ve read through the FAQ in the project’s description entirely before continuing on with the slides.

┈┈

Here’s a recap of our host team this session!

Encryn @28thDimension - comms
Summer @freeIy - sorting
Yume @yumetopia - activities

We’ve assigned individual roles to each host this session so that although we all still work together on most of the camp itself, specific parts are dedicated to each of us so you know who to look to / ask when you have any questions or concerns <3
With that being said, if you would like to participate in this upcoming session but would prefer to not lead a cabin, campers signups will be shared on November 1st on Summer @freeiy’s profile - go leave a comment on Encryn @28thDimension’s profile to be pinged for their release!

┈┈

And this is probably where Yume realises that she has stalled enough ;w;” So! Without further ado, here are this session’s application questions :0 As usual, we’re looking for personality, honesty, and quality in your theme and answers, so give it your all! <33

❀ : ┈┈ ‧₊˚ ♡ ₊˚‧ ┈┈ : ❀

1. Tell us about yourself!
Include your nickname, preferred pronouns, and timezone (if you’re comfortable sharing)! What makes you unique as a dorm captain? Write down a few interests you have and share a few fun facts about yourself, if you’re daring :0

2. Previous Leadership
Do you have any past experience leading in Scratch camps, the platform in general, or offline activities? What kind of leadership was it? Did you have to work with other people, and how did it go?

3. Dorm Preferences
Which cabins dorms are you looking to lead? (Please check the FAQ for a list of possible dorms!) Please specify any ideas you have for naming your dorm and your plans for theming and storyline, if any ^^

4. Why You?
Why should we pick you as a dorm captain/vice-captain? What traits do you have as a leader that will be beneficial to the team?

5. Time Dedication
How much time are you willing to dedicate to SDC per day during the planning months (Oct-Nov) and during camp (Dec)? Do you know of any plans you’ll have in the next few months that will affect your activity levels?

6. Time Management
What are your strengths and weaknesses in time management? How do you usually keep yourself on top of any assigned tasks?

7. Checkboxes
♡ I am applying for co-leader only.
♡ If I get selected as leader captain, I am currently planning on having no cos vice-captains.
♡ I am willing to share a promotional project for SDC.
♡ I will notify the hosts council as soon as possible if I need to be inactive for an extended period of time.

❀ : ┈┈ ‧₊˚ ♡ ₊˚‧ ┈┈ : ❀

And that’s it for this session’s questions! :0 If you are looking to apply, simply remix and share this project with your answers! Feel free to be as creative as you’d like with themes - we’d love to see your personality shine through <3

Leader Captain Applications are due on October 20th 2025, at 23:59 (11:59 p.m.) UTC! Extensions can be granted by case for emergency reasons (please read the FAQ for more info on how to request one). Remember that we aren’t a writing camp (xD) and there’s no need to type out essays for each question, so over two weeks should be more than enough to finish your app!

I believe we’ve covered everything then-! Best of luck to all of those applying (which you totally should btw ^^), we can’t wait to see what you create <33
