The Haiti Poster Project was a philanthropic effort to raise money to fund the group
Doctors Without Borders whose focus at the time was to provide relief to Haitian earthquake victims. These posters were designed, produced, and into the Haiti Poster Project headquarters in San Diego to be sold online. One hundred percent of the proceeds were donated to the relief group.
My submission, entitled simply "H", portrayed a spin off of the internationally recognized icon for a hospital. The negative space of the letter "H" was made to accommodate the shape of the country of Haiti to salute the cause and isolate the idea that medical aid is needed.
Among the individuals and organizations who purchased this poster was the World Bank. They chose to display my poster at
The World Bank Global Conference: Helping Haiti in the Spring of 2011.
This was a group project where the goal was to sell the idea that designers will choose their paper because it carries with it a certain character that is relevant to their design. While trying to decide what makes a paper sample book so memorable, we made the decision to utilize the term "nostalgic". Using that word as our departure point, we stylized our paper sample book as an old high school yearbook, something everybody can relate to, and backed up our content with intricate wordplay as each sample within the book became a unique personality all its own.
This is the identity system developed by our senior design class for the annual Film Follies presentation at Penn State University. Film Follies is a showcase of senior design work and consists heavily of motion graphics. To emphasize our transition from print to motion, we created a static poster that became a recognizable identity of the event around campus, then brought it to life on opening night as seen in the video below.
