Bhangra Blowout 14
Identity, Flash promo, website
client: The George Washington University South Asian Society
2007
Bhangra Blowout, held annually by the George Washington University South Asian Society for the past fourteen years, was the first national bhangra dance competition in the country (there are now several highly competitive events held nationwide) and is a major cultural event in the DC area.
I discussed several themes and looks for the event with the organizers, and decided on doing something reminiscent of recent iPod ads but with a distinctly urban flair and using the theme colors of the year, blue and silver. I agreed to create a logo for the event, a flash promo to be shown at other South Asian cultural events which was also modified to act as a splash page for their site, and a website that would feature music and allow for Society members to edit the content easily.

The music player at the top is no longer linked to a playlist, but originally played several bhangra hits supplied by the SAS.
