Overview

This grouped case study brings together campaign design work for Khwabeeda Talkies and Raabta across multiple editions and themes. The work focused on building recognisable visual identities, translating each theme into a clearer campaign language, and creating print materials that felt cohesive, specific, and ready for public-facing promotion.

What I delivered

Event identity

Developed visual identities that gave each edition a more distinctive and recognisable campaign presence.

Posters and print collateral

Designed posters, brochures, schedules, invitations, and supporting print materials for public-facing promotion.

Illustration and thematic visuals

Built visual language through motif, texture, colour, and illustration tied to each event's theme.

Campaign storytelling

Helped shape how each festival was introduced to audiences through more coherent promotional design.

Edition-to-edition adaptation

Applied a different creative direction across multiple years while keeping each set of materials cohesive within its own campaign.

Event identity and visual language

The identity drew on hand-built motifs, folk-inspired forms, and custom visual elements that gave Raabta a more distinctive cultural character.
