This year the Traverse City Film Festival posthumously honored John Hughes with their equivalent of a Lifetime Achievement Award.

When I discovered it was for his movies that I’d be designing posters I totally flipped. It would be tough to find any body of pop-culture work I’d be as excited about.

My goal for each poster was to make it as iconic as the film itself. So much so that I wouldn’t even have to put the title on there.

I decided that might be a little bit of a stretch, so I did include the title at the bottom of each, but see if you can guess the movie without looking… and let me know which is your favorite.

These posters are now available as limited edition art prints. Only 10 of each, so get one before they’re gone!

Don’t forget!

My submission to the ReadyMade Magazine’s “How Does Music Inspire You?” contest has been selected to be part of their exhibit during the South by Southwest festival.

I wish I had more time to create multiple submissions. It would have definitely helped my odds (the Grand Prize winner submitted 9 different pieces to the contest).

Her Grand prize-winning entry is a good one though, so I’m happy her hard work paid off.

And I’m really proud and excited to have my work displayed where people are partying in public.

Here are some close-up images to show the details:
