design for an event |
|
The
chamber orchestra of Wernigerode wanted to perform Giuseppe Verdi's operetta "Falstaff"
and requested assistance from professor högerle on designing a poster and
a booklet. He took the task to class and made it objective of the
course. The class members had to create two examples designs for the event so
that the orchestra could choose one. Unfortunately they didn't get
enough money for the event so it got cancelled.
The operetta "Falstaff" from Guiseppe Verdi is adapted from
Shakespear's "Merry Wives of Windsor." The main character,
Sir John Falstaff, is a broke, old, fat guy who used to be a ladies´
man in his younger days. He is trying to woo two women, Meg and Alice,
at the same time. He ends up in a laundry basket and being dumped
into the river next to Alice's house. |
