My poster design for this show. The cast and crew visited the Holocaust Memorial Center to get inspiration before the show, and walking around the museum, I noticed a lot of straight lines: lines of barbed wire, lines of the Star of David, lines of the bricks of the towering walls, lines of the striped pajamas, and many, many lines of people. On the way out of the museum, there was a huge quilt on the wall and that's when the idea hit me. To make it more quilt-like, I scanned in different materials to Photoshop and faded them into the poster background in inDesign. I used felt, grass, card stock and fabric to add some texture. The poster won a superior award at the regional level of our competition, the highest award.
For this one act play, I wanted to open up the options for spirit wear even more than The Complete Works the year before. I created two designs - one compatible for full and quarter zip sweatshirts and one for short/long sleeve t-shirts, crew necks and hoodies. This photo shows our Assistant and Technical directors in their choice of spirit wear.
Examples of the full zip, quarter zip and long sleeve t-shirt.
The 1.0 version of a publicity display I created and designed for the show (this version was unfortunately crushed by the play's set during transportation and 2.0 was never photographed). Apart from some power tool help, I painted and designed this myself. The idea was that audience members could write letters to soldiers, veterans, Holocaust survivors and cast/crew members and I would deliver them. It was very popular and won a superior award (the highest level) at the Michigan Interscholastic Forensic Association's regional and state level.
