Auftanken (Refuel)
2023
Project Overview"Auftanken" is an episodic contemporary play that explores interconnected human relationships changing through the course of four seasons. Developed collaboratively within our youth club, the ensemble members wrote and shaped their own unique characters from scratch, bringing them to the stage under professional guidance.

Character Profile – "John": I developed and portrayed John, a charismatic, flirtatious individual who thrives on attention. His arc centers on a dramatic love triangle, torn between his girlfriend Jolene and his growing feelings for Elody, a gas station employee.
Graphic Design & Campaign: To contribute to the production off-stage, I designed the official flyer for the play.
I managed the entire visual process from the initial concept to the final layout. Below is a look at the journey from the first rough sketch to the final published artwork.
briefing
The theater group approached me to create the key visual for the youth club's upcoming play.
The Creative Guidelines:
Core Imagery: A central gas pump placed on a lawn or grass-like surface.
Style: Abstract and artistic (e.g., stylized or artificial turf rather than strictly realistic).
Flexibility: Freedom regarding the background elements (like incorporating a sky texture) and overall composition.
Timeline: A rapid turnaround for initial concepts within 24–48 hours.
