Happy Days- Katie Erickson

This is Katie, I've changed the inside so it doesn't rely so strongly lines. The concept is about being Winnie being stuck in endless days. 

Hi Olga, 

This is Sangwook. I changed color of the poster. In the white background, I think "+" signs are more stand out than left one. Please give me feedback. 

Thank you!!!

Happy Days

Hi, Olga-
Thank you for the comment last week - it was very helpful :)

I tried combine 2 of my cover which you recommended -
and cleaned up the flaps (I had broken and overlapped paragraphs last week..)

and changed typeface of the title,"Happy Days".
(Mercury --> Akzidenz Grotesk which used in my other mirror posters)

Do you think it's still too dark for the play? 


Thank you for your time - - - :)

Happy Days covers - Kelly Park

Hello,

I tried few more explorations for the cover.

Last week, you thought DIN (what I used for Samuel Beckett) suites better for the title (happy days). I like DIN's alphabet, but I do not like its punctuation. it's too rigid…

Comma and periods are my element and DIN's comma and periods look like blocks.

So should I used different typeface for punctuation or just use different typeface for title overall?

I am not sure which combination of typefaces work the best... so far...

Please help!! thank you. :)

One of my book jackets, same concept(broken)

endgame

Ok so i(Brian) did a new concept and it is broken.  My media is a broken bottle i had from breaking it into pieces and scattered around.  I figured stepping out of the box is a good idea.  The glass pieces are broken and scattered around explaining how much of a mess clov and hamm are.  

ENDGAME

Hi, this is Soomin.
I revised my cover and made samples for interior of the book. I desperately need your opinions :'D
Thank you and Good Luck guys!!!

the list of characters

I tried to express 4 characters' movement(?) with names. Each name has different weight and movement.

Clov gets up and down with a ladder.

Kelly Park Happy Days covers.

Hello,
I am working on my Happy Days covers. My concept is never ending monologue.
I am using coma and ellipsis as my visual element.
I am not sure if I need to make cover more busy, complex because she is talking a lot and sometimes it's confusing what she is really talking about. or leave it simple and clean and display the idea of repetition and talkativeness with coma and ellipsis only.

Hi,

I have 3 covers for Happy days-

My concept is the mirror that reflects Winnie.

I thought Winnie is talking to herself in the play, like sometimes people looking into the mirror and talk to themselves.

The play is surrealistic, so I used surreal settings with mirrors facing each other which have endless reflections.

the second one - Winnie's talking herself looking into the mirror but she can't get any answer even from the mirror because she's looking her back.. Is she really looking into it from the outside? or she is also one of the endless reflections?

1,3,4th - the same concept using only type that trapped inside of the endless reflections.

Thank you :)

Happy days poster and dust jacket(JuYoung Lee)

This is my poster and dust jacket design for happy days by Samuel Beckett.
I used recycling symbol for my theme "repetition."
The symbol does not only represent the repetition, but also Winnie's life as well.
That is why there is an umbrella, which Winnie is always holding.
I tried to symbolize and simplify Winnie's life, and connect to my theme.

Thank you =)

Time Tells All

My concept for Time became a dialogue of tough questions between Time and I. Through two series of postcards Time and I go back and forth getting down to the real answer as to why Time just does not leave us alone. The clock is always ticking, isn't it?

The flower series are the postcards that I was sending. I chose to make them flower anatomy sheerly because I wanted to. I felt I could take liberty in doing that because they are a representation of myself. And I would love postcards that actually looked like this because I would feel so attached to the their warm beauty.

Time's postcards to me are more conceptually driven. Each postcard is a generalized sum up of the point Time is trying to get across to me in the letter.

I think my biggest roadblock for now is the envelope that holds our intimate discussions. I wasn't sure if I wanted to make it addressed as well, but opted not to because I didn't want to drive the postal concept into the ground too much. Instead, I've let it exist sheerly as the folder that I hold these memories. Typographically I don't think it's their yet. I think I should keep it simple because it's all about the inside content, but I am not sure if my plain handwriting is enough of an introduction for what lays inside.


I appreciate any feedback.

Happy Days

Hello.
This is Kumbee.
I made some variations of Happy Days covers.
The concept for the cover is irony.
Winnie hopes that in one day the sky will pull her up from the ground, but that never happens in play. In other words, she pretends to be very optimistic but actually, she is falling into despair and "sorrow keeps breaking in". So I cut out clouds and sun from bright sky and put them into dark background.

Endgame cover

Hey guys, it's Caryn.

Here is a newer version of my book cover. Tell me what you think. ^-^
