Hot off the presses! We are supremely excited and thrilled to have created this week’s Newsweek cover!
It was a terrific experience, especially since we were guided in our work by thoughtful and precise art direction. A good dollop of humor goes a long way, especially when accompanied by a clear and articulated concept– collaboration heaven! And for our international friends, we also did the overseas cover, which features the world’s most popular unpopular leaders. So, happily, this week we can say we’ve got everyone covered!
Gluekit recently designed the cover for the 200th anniversary of the fabulous Greek film magazine Cinema. This was the first typographic cover we’ve been asked to create, and it was an absolute blast!
Here at Gluekit, we’ve been really thrilled to start working with a film culture magazine in Greece. They’ve been great to work with, and this cover opportunity was super fun. The issue itself focuses on Ingmar Bergman’s legacy, and the art directors wanted to make him look modern to highlight his ongoing influence on European cinema. The color palette draws on the colors in Sweden’s flag, in homage to Bergman’s roots.
The March 22 issue of Billboard features a cover illustration by Gluekit! The cover story is about how country music biz is going digital, bit by byte.
We were excited when one of our illustrations was used as the cover of Greek film magazine Cinema. The piece was originally created for Entertainment Weekly, and then picked up in Greece.
Here’s a snapshot of Daniel Day Lewis with the cover at a recent film festival.
Here’s a sketch Gluekit created for a recent cover of Ode, a Dutch magazine that began publishing in the United State a few years ago and focuses on news about positive actions being taken around the world. The idea was to create a central Gandhi figure in the foreground and fill the background with celebs following in his footsteps and a raucous crowd of supporters.
Gluekit loves covers and the thrill of possibilities.
