Black ATLas

Graphic Design

The consultant conducted an initial interview with the client who specified a need to engage millennial black women in the Atlanta area with a new podcast launching in September 2020. The lifestyle podcast features two funky, fun black women and their tales of navigating the world in the midst of COVID-19, racial unrest, and the general rollercoaster that is our world.

The resulting podcast cover image draws upon afro futurism themes to position the co-hosts as benevolent and fierce goddesses of a color galaxy. The bright colors speak to the effortless joy and undeniable intensity the co-hosts being to their world. The cover art seeks to communicate a “we’re care free” and yet “we mean business” vibe.
