ISTD Circus Brief

Create an identity for the Circus Museum- From the big top to sideshows, the content and audience is your choice. 

I chose to create a museum based upon luck and fate within the circus. During my research I discovered a lot of circus performers are superstitious. I wanted to reflect this by producing an identity that allows the audience to get a glimpse into the circus lifestyle through superstitions. The museum itself is based upon the history and origin of the superstitions and general history around each topic. 

This museum is aimed at families- I wanted to create a light hearted, fun and quirky museum that reflects the quirky side of superstitions.

Brief
To challenge the conventions of a ‘book’. Base the book on a memory and represent the memory in the best possible way.
Explanation
My memory was of a near miss car crash on the motorway. My main focus was on the feeling you get after becoming close to crashing of ‘What If?’ The book itself is typographic and has been designed in a newspaper format in order to show the over exaggeration in the titles of what might have happened and then in contrast the story of what actually happened running alongside in the text. The idea was focused on the reducing of information in the titles and the text, eventually making them both insignificant at the end of the story and leaving you with one strap line ‘Treat every day like it’s your last, stories are insignificant without the events of life’.
