Survivor 45 Promotional Poster (concept)
Survivor has been on television since 2000, in 2023, the show aired its 45th season.
I decided to create this poster after being so inspired by the tenacity of the players in this monumental, landmark season.
Utilizing Photoshop, I employed text boxes, clipping masks, layer styles, and blending modes to create the poster. Incorporating assets like cast member photos, bird images, typography, and texture layers contributed to the captivating final design. Despite being a personal project, adherence to specifications such as establishing a grid composition and incorporating heavy sans-serif fonts and texture layers is noted.
Shape, color, and texture play crucial roles, with square cast member images forming a grid that breaks up the composition. An orange and yellow gradient symbolizes the sunset and fire, aligning with Survivor's theme. Texture adds a gritty, burned effect, resembling paper found on the show's island. These elements adhere to design principles such as balance, proportion, and hierarchy, ensuring equilibrium among title pieces and photo assets.
In the design process, I invested substantial time and effort, evident in the finished work. Being a passionate Survivor fan, I strategically chose cast photos, emphasizing smiles to convey the excitement near the game's end. This attention to detail reflects creative, original efforts in crafting the poster. The final design presents a high-resolution, color-accurate, and readable artifact, serving as a critical portfolio piece.
