  • WANTED: BUN B AND POSSE 

ORIGINAL POSTER, 11”X17“
DESIGN, ART DIRECTION 

COMISSIONED BY 
SAMAAN ASHWARI, 
HIP-HOP JOURNALIST




Commissed by reknown hip-hop journalist and culture-maker Sama’an Ashwari to develop the look/feel for an ongoing pitch designed to score one of Houston’s most legendary artists, Bun B*, a show deal on a major TV network. Due to the nature of this project, many components cannot be disclosed, but I’ve acquired permission to share some of the design elements I created for this project.

*Bun B was 1/2 of UGK, a duo formed with Pimp C. UGK’s notable contributions to hip-hop in the South include the iconic “International Players Anthem”, with Outkast. Post-Pimp C’s passing in ‘07, Bun B continues to be involved in the Houston community.

CUSTOM GRAPHICS

COMISSIONED BY DAN LEVY, 
LA-BASED COMEDIAN + WRITER




Commissed by LA-based comedian Dan Levy (not to be mistaken with Dan Levy from Schitt’s Creek, which happens all the time) to design various assets that captured the fun essence of his production company, Screaming Elliot Productions.  



BUT FIRST, A FEW PARAMETERS:

1.

DESIGN SHOULD TAKE SOME INSPIRATION FROM THIS GRAPHIC THAT’S BEEN USED AS OUR TAG FOR TOO LONG.





  

2.

DESIGN SHOULD IDEALLY INCORPORATE THE LEGEND BEHIND THE COMPANY NAME, MR. ELLIOT HIMSELF. 



 

3.

DESIGN, ASSETS AND MERCH SHOULD BE INFLUENCED BY THESE COLORS AND SHAPES, WHERE POSSIBLE. 








CUSTOM ILLUSTRATION OF DAN’S FATHER,
ELLIOT (THE ICON BEHIND THE COMPANY NAME) 




FINAL CUSTOM WORDMARK: HANDWRITTEN, ORIGINAL, KINETIC  


THE JAGGED LINE REPRESENTS ELLIOT’S ‘SCREAM’, AND IS DESIGNED TO LEND ITSELF TO ANIMATION IN THE FUTURE
