This project is spec work.

This was a former project based remotely, on a volunteer-basis with the social media and copywriting campaign for all aspects of this theatrical company. This comes from my passion for sharing the storytelling capabilities I know this company has with its region in an effort to better support and sustain the arts in this area. As the social media copywriter + collaborator, marketing communications and assignments were also delegated by me.
Some items that I create in the process don't get used, but I still love them!
Here's the sitch:

Brief 🎫

Create a popping flyer for a new show set to hit for the season. The show was set to be in a "Choose Your Own" type of production, so I was more than pumped about it (did anyone else collect these?)
Write for all ages. The flyer would be passed out to a wide range of people, so the announcement needs to be engaging but recognizable.
Research inspiration is based on classical books of a similar name.

Result✅

After reviewing the original books, I decided the turnaround time would be too long for full-on illustrations. Still, I could create something reminiscent on Over (now GoDaddy Studio) and Canva. The result was a cover recognizable to anyone of any age who was a fan of the original CYOA series, giving a nod to the OG while keeping our space theme for the relevant production.
The originals! The outline around each cover illustration, and the trademark RED that grazed the top of every book stood out to me. I knew I had to include them in the inspired design.

The inspired design contains the same RED and outline with nods to the theatre company and theme (starry background!) I also echoed the text of the book and the text of the original opening scroll in the Star Wars movies for fans to get excited about!
