This project focuses on the manipulation and arrangement of typography as it conveys messages through a poster.
My poster focuses on the grit and glory of Ezzard Charles, who was a professional boxer from Cincinnati. He was extremely skilled and beloved locally, though he never rose to national fame and always remained relatively underappreciated.
Free Play:
Playing with and manipulating letters, words, and phrases in physical space to find opportunities to enhance the meaning delivered by the typography.
Further explorations and the beginning of creating poster composition ideas using text and image.
The iterative design process that would eventually lead to the finished poster.
