Project Overview & Process
After the launch of the 2015 Seattle Opera brand, I was tasked with redesigning the online versions of the Opera Spotlight Guides which had previously been published as simple blog posts. The Spotlight Guides at that time were booklets available for opera-goers that explored the history, composer, and relevant themes of each opera. We wanted to turn this printed material into a visually exciting and interactive experience with embedded music, photos, and videos.
For the design, I was inspired by special long-form news articles and wanted to blend elements from Seattle Opera's brand with a magazine layout. Originally each guide had different content sections, so each page was customized on the same basic layout. However, the 2019/20 season's Spotlight Guides were simplified and had the same content sections, which allowed for more uniform designs.
