San Diego's Latino Film Festival
Each year Media Arts Center host San Diego's annual Latino Film Festival and holds an open competition for a poster whose design will be used as the face of the event.
The goal is to create a design that perfectly captures the essence of this festival which celebrates Latino film, music and art.
I got a hold of some expired film strips and played around with color lighting until I got the purple photograph. I revolved my thumbnail sketches around that image, emphasizing typography to make the curl of the film strip the focus of the poster. I admit that it is overall a very simple composition.
