This poster is for Jake Brady and Steve O’Brien’s junior jazz recital. They said do whatever I wanted for the design, something that I don’t often get with clients. I would have to say, as a designer, I almost felt a sense discomfort due to the lack of “the box” for this project. I decided to embrace this and convey that feeling through the image. I picked something as arbitrary and irrelevant to ‘jazz music’ as possible; an image of a female basketball player from 1920. Then simply layered a large red X over the top of it, signifying that the recital certainly was not women’s basketball. Kind of an interesting take, and I’m not sure how I feel about it, but it was fun nonetheless.
