Magic for Animals (2023)

The poster for Magic for Animals

Think of a Prada ad but instead of a person donning a crocodile skin purse it's the reverse! My show is all about animals and how we treat them so I strove to create a fictitious high fashion advert from the point of view of an animal selling clothes and accessories made of humans to fellow animals. I love fashion but I hate how it treats animals and I made a huge effort in my show to make my glamorous costume vegan. The ad features a crocodile wearing me, the star of the show. There is also a very special handbag featured in my show that I wanted the poster to allude to. Creating this poster was quite a complicated undertaking and involved multiple photo shoots and weeks of photoshop work to get right. I am a production designer for movies so I wanted to spend the time to really show off my design skillset on my poster and get people curious about my show!
