Dutchman
Description:
With the Dutchman Movie Poster project, we each were supposed express graphically our feelings and interpretation of the 1967 movie, Dutchman. We were to translate the characters, metaphors, foreshadowing, gender/sexual/racial dynamics, setting, context, and the like, typographically. All elements of the movie, story, and characters were also to be taken into consideration. The setting and location, cinematography, and moment in history were also to be well thought-out. The two main characters, Clay and Lula, and their space and relationship were used as a compass for the design decisions.
Movie Poster, 30"x40".

Lovely Bones
Description:
Before redesigning the book covers, the story, mood, characters, situations, and settings were to be considered. The target audience of the book and how to bring the magic of the story to life through type and imagery was also to be considered. Three different book covers were to be created, capturing the essence of the story in a personal interpretation with 3 very different approaches: a conservative solution, an experimental solution, and a typographic solution. They all are to be 6" x 9" front covers, full color.
