Poster created for WordBRIDGE Playwrights upcoming play, I Am The Machine Gunner. The play’s script is edgy, powerful, and violent. It follows an old WWII veteran and his grandson who is a Russian gang member. The grandson tries to relate his actions to his grandfathers war experience.
For the poster’s design, I created a rough cut out of a mans face for the primary image. The face is anonymous and is meant to convey a sense of duality between the story’s two main characters. I wrinkled and tore the posters edges to give it a vintage and gritty look.
Out of 20 other submissions, The poster that I made was
selected by WordBRIDGE to be used throughout the promotion of the play. In addition, they also expressed interest in having
more freelance work done throughout the plays promotion.
