Challenge 2006 DVD Art

Since I'm busy on stuff I'm not ready to post yet I figured I'd post some past work. A couple of years ago the Challenge conference came to Purdue and all the shows were held in the Hall of Music. We recorded every one and I was asked to make a DVD box set of every show.

I divided the shows up by day and created a 2-disc case for each day. The front covers of each case are identical - with the exception of the date, but the backs of each case are different to show the speaker for that day. It was a lot of fun to design and I hear the client was very happy with them.

You can see a snippet of the menus here.

1984

The play 1984 came through our campus and we were commissioned to make a 30 second commercial for it. I split the work with JC Trombley, my coworker, and we came up with this. JC worked on all the scrolling text on the first half, I created everything from the flashing images on. I then combined the two halves and put a final red video look on the commercial. Play the video below to view it.

I created the DVD box art using elements from the commercial and the logos that were provided to us.

After showing it to the people who were producing the show they liked it so much they asked for a copy to send to Tim Robbins, the artistic director of the play. We were all very gracious towards the reception it received.

I make a lot of DVD artwork for my work so I thought I'd post what I made today. Sometimes there is no budget and I have about 30 minutes to make the whole package. This is one of those instances. All I had to work with was a piece of paper with the title. The case jacket is flat so you can see the back, spine, and cover from left to right. It was all done in Photoshop. I hope to post more work soon.

Please feel free to post any comments. Have a great day.
