And if we Shadows

I designed promotional materials for the show ‘And if we Shadows’. This consisted of a poster and postcard. The print materials required a visual language unique enough to describe the show’s content at a glance, and entice possible attendees to buy tickets. The use of performance photos from previous, similar events layered with urban illustrations and a dark sunburst pattern evokes both the urban grittiness and saucy burlesque atmosphere.

Wood type in the title echoes the burlesque/vaudeville reference, while slightly distorted ornaments around the header add lightness and grace. The show was held over for an additional two weeks of performances.
