“When first introduced to the Chicago Latino Film Festival, I was intrigued by the energy and vitality of the previous designs. My inspiration stemmed from the tradition of the sugar skull. I translated the intricate detailing of the skull into a graphic whirlwind of festive color. The typographic message creates the jaw of the skull, incorporating word and image. The goal of this design is to celebrate tradition while adding a fresh interpretation- just as a successful film should do.”
