I wanted to find a way to mix the math and statistics with baseball.  Inspired by Olly Moss as always I tried to find an interesting way to mix % symbol  in with the batter.  Here’s what I came up with

“Fra- gee- lay. That must be Italian.”

Poster design for the movie Archie’s Final Project

About the film: “My name is Archibald Holden Buster Williams and I’m going to kill myself.” Archie, a 17-year-old media student announces that his final school video project will be filming his own suicide. As teachers sound the alarm, calling in shrinks and threatening expulsion, students around the school are alternately repelled by and attracted to Archie as he captures his own postmodern “Catcher in the Rye.” Archie’s video diary of the circus surrounding his announcement exposes the truths of life, which include death, sex, violence, drugs, and the hypocrisy of the modern media, which assaults all teens. Director David Lee Miller spent four years working with his son Jordan and lead actor Gabriel Sunday to create this affecting portrait, which authentically addresses the epidemic of teen suicide. The performances from the young cast are flawless, setting the foundation for Archie’s Final Project to celebrate and question Generation YouTube with its calibrated commentary of manipulated footage, animation, and 1950s-styled PSAs. Miller’s film is a lightning bolt into a hot topic that struggles to be understood. Through his command of the variety of media used by teens, he has crafted a film that will be a part of the discussion for years to come.

Spaceballs the redesign

“we aint found SHIT!”

When I asked some of my female friends what other movie posters I should do, it quickly became consensus that I should do one for Sex and the City

My idea of shoes and a martini glass unintentionally ended up looking like a uterus, which ironically still works for the design.

version two, basically a similar design, just more emphasis on the typography.

“Hold me.”
”I can’t.”

Everything is backwards now, like out there is the true world, and in here is the dream.
