Nola Chamber Fest

NOLA Chamber Fest is an annual chamber music festival and competition presented collaboratively by Lyrica Baroque, the New Orleans Friends of Music and the University of New Orleans. The festival aims to inspire and motivate musicians through the unique experience of tight-knit collaboration and artistic independence that only chamber music can offer.

2024 Nola Chamber Fest

The branding for NOLA Chamber Fest was already well-established, reflecting the festival’s commitment to collaboration, artistic independence, and musical excellence. My role was to build on that foundation, using the existing assets to elevate the festival's visual identity and ensure its message resonated across various platforms.

Amplifying Tradition

Using the NCF’s branding elements, I reimagined the poster as a dynamic centerpiece for the festival celebrating 10 years. With a balance of established visual cues and my design expertise, I refined the layout to ensure the poster communicated the festival's vibrant energy and professional polish. By amplifying the typography, color harmony, and spatial composition, I created a design that maintained consistency with the original branding while bringing a fresh sense of clarity and engagement.

Expanded Materials

To extend the festival's visual impact, I applied the same principles of enhancement across other deliverables:

Newsletters: I utilized the existing branding to create visually compelling, reader-friendly designs that highlighted key dates and calls to action effectively.

Social Media Graphics: I crafted eye-catching graphics that maintained brand consistency while optimizing engagement across digital platforms.

Winner Certificates: Leveraging the established brand assets, I designed certificates that felt celebratory and professional, honoring the participants' achievements while staying true to the festival's ethos.
