I created the branding and DVD packaging for this Poetry Everywhere Project.
About Poetry Everywhere:34 animated films were created by students working with docUWM, a documentary media center at the University of Wisconsin Milwaukee, and the university’s creative writing program, in association with the Poetry Foundation. Aiming to focus a new generation of filmmakers on poetry as subject matter, the project encouraged film students to read widely from the canon of contemporary poetry and, working closely with poets and scholars, effectively translate poetry to the screen using an array of film and animation techniques.
