Expected duration: less than 1 week
Task:
Create a logo, visual theme (optic), and a poster for a new tailor-made circus
show happening in Istanbul this winter. The deliverables should be adaptable
to various formats, including banners and ads.
Atmosphere and Theme:
• Overall Feel: The design should evoke a festive, lavish, and wintery
atmosphere, capturing the essence of the Bosphorus in the winter without
relying heavily on traditional Christmas symbols. The tone should
blend nostalgia with modernity, presenting the circus tent as a symbol of
warmth, friendship, togetherness, amazement, and good times.
• Visual Elements:
• Circus Tent: The tent should be central, depicted as an inviting,
nostalgic symbol set against a backdrop of cold weather, symbolizing a
warm refuge.
• Characters and Symbols: Incorporate classic circus elements including
an elephant, a monkey, a giraffe, and interacting clowns. The poster
should also feature acrobats such as jugglers and contortionists. These
elements should be rendered in an old-fashioned, art deco circus style
with a modern twist.
• Lighting: The scene should be set at night or during sunset, with the
tent illuminated by magnificent, fairy-light-style lighting. This lighting
should be a key feature, creating a warm, inviting glow in contrast to the
cooler backdrop.
• Scene Setting: The poster should clearly depict the event’s location—on the Asian side of Istanbul, directly on the
Bosphorus. The setting should include iconic views or hints of the
Bosphorus to anchor the event in its location.
Color Scheme:
• The primary color palette should include rich, dark tones such as:
• Dark Blue
• Dark Green
• Dark Red
• Dark Violet
• Accent Colors: Use glaring yellows to represent the warm, inviting lighting
of the circus scene.
Design Style:
• Inspiration: The visual style should draw inspiration from traditional, art
deco circus posters but with a modern twist. The design should capture the
elegance and grandeur of a classic circus while feeling fresh and
contemporary.
• Reference Style: The overall style should be reminiscent of the “A
Christmas Carol” poster, combining vintage charm with a magical, festive
atmosphere.
Location & Setting:
• Specifics: The design should include subtle references to the event’s
setting of its location, with visual cues to the Bosphorus and the
unique architecture of Istanbul.
• Resources: More information about the location and setting will be provided.
Attachments:
• A mood board with images and visual references is provided to help convey
the desired look and feel will also be provided. |
