Ishmael Bernal


Poster design

In honor of the acclaimed Filipino director, I created a poster to commemorate Ishmael Bernal’s contributions to Philippine cinema. Best known for his 1982 masterpiece Himala (which is subtly referenced in illustration in the background), Bernal narrates the stories of the Filipino experience, which is often marred with tragedy and noise.

Using dynamic type, texture, and depth, the poster is a synthesis of Bernal’s long and celebrated career in the film industry.
