speaking of fairytales; here’s a preview of our latest ballet image (shot by ruud baan) for the ‘a la russe’ production, i will be working on the poster in the coming week… this time no complicated sets or props just dancers and a backdrop for a change
young french graduate (and ex-studio dumbar intern) alexia boiteau sent me an a link to her updated portfolio
the accompanying book is beautifully designed but the website is absolutely awful: 100 best german, swiss & austrian posters
like most poster overviews these days, the entries seem to fall neatly into three or four categories, typographic, illustrative / graphic and photographic
an impressive portfolio from french designer with an amusing name: methode bernadette
she has a strong bias towards editorial/typographical work… definitely worth a look
i was back in the studio with ‘ruud baan’ on friday for the latest poster shoot: ‘à la russe’ for the dutch national ballet, this time with three dancers: igone (from the netherlands), anna (from russia) and casey (from the states)
despite the obvious difficulties in shooting and choreographing three dancers at once for a photo, the session went very smoothly and we will be working on this particular poster in the coming weeks… more news soon
