Winner - Gramugg

Juan Humaran is one of the most accommodating professional artists I have had the pleasure to "think tank with". It is with great reservation I recommend his expertise, as I would rather keep such a gem of a person my personal secret, perhaps then he is more likely to be free to creatively embellish our online activities. However he is so likeable my conscience "insists" I share his talents (;o( He transformed my grand complicated ideas with simplicity and flair, so diplomatically, at times I imagined "I was the catalyst" of change. The result astounded me! It will be a great mistake on your part if you do not consider inviting him to participate in your exclusive contest. If any person is able to tap into the essence of your project, "Juan can". Yours sincerely, John

How Kompasshaus started their other business or advertising journey

Who are you known as?

Moonbox Productions

What industry do you think your business is most related to?

Entertainment & The Arts

Tell us a bit about who you are and the people you reach

Moonbox Productions is a Cambridge-based theater production company dedicated to supporting local arts and local artists, as well as connecting communities to the non-profit organizations that serve them. Formed in 2011, Moonbox has become the most critically successful new production company in Boston of the last decade earning 3 Elliot Norton Award nominations and 12 IRNE Award nominations, including nominations for Best Musical, Best Play, Best Ensemble, Best Director, Best Music Director, Best Choreography, Best Supporting Actor, and Best Actor. In addition, Moonbox has enjoyed steadily growing box office success. Productions include both plays and musicals, ranging from the classic to the artfully obscure. To fulfill its artistic mission, Moonbox taps the deep well of artistic talent within the Greater Boston area to product exceptional theater programming. To fulfill its social mission, Moonbox shares its marketing efforts and audiences with local non-profit organizations in order to increase the reach and impact of their work.

What inspires you and how do you envision the design for your business?

Moonbox Productions will soon be starting a search for a marketing director. We are looking for someone to create a dossier of information containing a cover page, the job description, information about the artistic director of the company, and posters from previous productions with pull-quotes from printed reviews. All of the content already exists. The task is to put it all together in a coherent and visually pleasing PDF. A more detailed description of the project is attached.

Other notes

There is freedom to design the cover page however one wants, and to assemble the pull-quotes around the posters in any way. The job description and the article about the artistic director can be reformatted, so long as no information is changed.

UPDATE: I have added a list of regional theater nominations. It would be great to have the nominations added to the poster pages for their individual productions, or to have an additional nominations page created at the end. However, since this information was added after the initial project was posted, it is completely optional, and will have no effect on the final judging. I have also updated the pull-quote list to include more selections for Musical of Musicals.
