Cinema Rhythm was an event organized in December 2023 by Made to Move and Body High, meant to celebrate dance. On the menu: several DJ sets, as well as a screening of Check Your Body at the Door, a documentary about underground NYC club dancers in the 1990s.
The poster was designed by L.A.-based Saish Kotecha, using movie stills and all-caps typefaces. Most of the text is set in an extended Eurostile, paired with Plain Form’s Ready Active for the date and what could be described as an under-layer for the title. The superposition of the two typefaces creates an interesting contrast and vibration, almost as if electric sparks were moving around the letters.
