postering: part two

This is another of the season posters that I designed for Clemson's performing arts department. The Children's Hour is the story of two teachers who run a boarding school and whose lives are torn apart by the actions of one malicious pupil. We wanted to use the poster as a way to convey something that was both reminiscent of childhood but sinister at the same time.

I decided to experiment with the paper chains that children make and created one of girls holding hands and then began tearing and crumpling them to get the effect I wanted. Photographing them gave the whole piece this nice, shadowy effect. Mission accomplished.
