Illustrator Creates Retro-Style Graphics for Improvised Comedy Podcast Sound Deals
In October 2022, an illustrator developed a series of promotional graphics for the comedy podcast Sound Deals. The podcast, founded by Max and Ivan, features improvised segments where hosts and guests like Dara Ó Briain, Deborah Frances-White, and Mae Martin humorously pitch fictional products. The illustrator aimed to capture the show's tone by designing cheerful yet slightly sinister retro advertisements using a limited color palette and the Ed's Market font family by Laura Worthington Type. The project included brand graphics, audiograms, animation tests, and plans for live show illustrations. The artwork visually represents the podcast's absurd fictional products while maintaining a vintage advertising aesthetic.
