A Run [amuk] on Theatre Posters

Since joining an 8 week improvisation class at the Melbourne Civic Theater I've taken on a couple of little pro-bono assignments that are entertaining for me as well as the client [hopefully].

I'd like to think that pro-bono work is a logical place to do the work that you want to do. Paid work is another story. We push and pull to do what we think is best for the paying client, and the end result is either the exhilaration of acceptance, huge changes, modest compromise, or utter failure. This should not be the case for free work, however.

Creative Notes: The concept was simple: People not regularly in the theatre having some fun. I drew the cartoon, traced it in Illustrator CS3, added color and cleaned up a few blemishes. The typography is ITC Franklin Gothic, very slightly modified.
