Making the RENT Poster for The Footlight Club
Making the RENT

Bill Doscher and I wanted to pay homage to the original Broadway marketing campaign for this iconic musical by using a similar styling on the post production of each portrait.
Each of these actors was a powerhouse, both on stage and in the studio and I hope we captured some of the energy and feel of the show.

Catherine Moniz did a wonderful job on Makeup and Lisa Mosher was fantastic on Wardrobe.
