Overview

For two consecutive years, we developed the official visual identity for DJ IvanI’s winter booking campaigns. Designed to announce the opening of his seasonal performance schedule, each campaign relied on a distinct, high-impact concept rooted in American pop-culture icons—reinterpreting classic visual references to craft fresh, memorable graphics tailored to the artist's brand and personality.

The Challenge

Promotional booking graphics for DJs need to break through saturated social media feeds and immediately drive event organizers and venues to take action. The challenge was twofold:
     - Reinterpret world-famous pop-culture imagery (Uncle Sam’s recruitment poster and the Jack Daniel’s Honey label) into customized booking campaigns without losing the instant recognition of the original sources.

     - Balance bold artistic themes with crucial, high-legibility business details (contact information, booking status, and artist branding).

Our Approach

We executed two dedicated visual concepts focused on storytelling, custom typography, and strategic social media packaging:

Winter 2020 Campaign (Uncle Sam Reinterpretation):
     - Visual Metaphor: Reimagined James Montgomery Flagg’s iconic 1917 recruitment poster to communicate an assertive, direct call-to-action ("I Want You to Book IvanI").

     - Composition & Typography: Positioned Uncle Sam pointing directly at the viewer as the central anchor. We applied custom 3D typography with red fill and blue drop shadows matching the outer frame.

     - Brand Seal: Created an authentic "American Standard" quality seal containing the headline call-to-action ("Reserva Ya") alongside the artist’s primary branding in dark blue tones.

Winter 2021 Campaign (Jack Daniel’s Honey Reinterpretation):
     - Label Recreation: Custom-built an event graphic mirroring the classic Jack Daniel’s Honey label, incorporating the signature queen bee illustration, ornamental borders, and multi-font typography while integrating contact details and "Winter 2021" booking notices.

     - Product Ad Mockup & Carousel Strategy: Produced a secondary, decorative promotional ad featuring a bottle covered by bees with the custom label applied.

     - Social Media Formatting: Structured both assets as a two-slide Instagram carousel—using the high-impact bottle artwork as the main hook (Slide 1) and the close-up, high-legibility label graphic for detailed information (Slide 2).
