Dance House brief 2008





This brief was to create a new logo for the Dance House theatre in Manchester, we were allowed to pick whichever theatre we wanted. This theatre had such a dated logo so I chose it. My sketches began with images from Ballerinas, from the actual website of theirs. I focused on combining the two, using the ribbon from the ballerina slipper to join with the image of a house.
We were then asked to design a poster for a certain show to be performed at the theatre, I thought Salome would be the most interesting to use and as its linked with Art Nouveau I couldn't think of any other reason not to use it.
I took the photograph myself, I wanted to create an eerie, evil effect. Emphasizing the fact that Salome kissed the beheaded lover she was infatuated with.
