The Blue Umbrella Poster Series

This poster series (which was featured in Print Magazine’s 2015 Regional Design Annual) promotes Pixar’s short film, “The Blue Umbrella,” which made its theatrical release in June 2013 before “Monster’s University.” The posters echo the vintage feel of the film’s logo and credit design and captures the contrasting beats of the story line, which follows a smitten blue umbrella through dark and rainy city streets to the warmth of a welcoming corner café. The posters hint at the sweetness of the two main characters, the connection that unfolds between them, and highlights parts of Blue’s journey through the city setting.
