The Pirates of Penzance Campaign
The creative concept, design and multi-channel campaign for a production of The Pirates of Penzance
The Challenge
To concept the visual graphics and theme for the musical and create a marketing strategy to promote the show and sell tickets. Working closely with the show's production team.
The Solution
This was a really exciting project as it was part of the 50th anniversary year for the organisation, so I was able to use elements of than within the design, for example the ships flag.
This production is a quirky Gilbert & Sullivan show, so this silliness and playfulness needed to be reflected in the campaign and in the design.
I directed the photography so be spoofy and full of character, much like the characters in the show, the colours were bright illustrative, idyllic and playful, to represent the feel of the whole production.
The campaign was a big success and completely sold out the show.
