Title design, typeface design and campaign materials for a documentary on New York City’s taxi medallion crisis. Inspired by the original NYC taxi logo, and the titlecard from Streets of Gold (1986). The typeface extended across Kickstarter and social media collateral to support funding efforts and community outreach.

This documentary is still in production, and you can donate to it here and follow their journey on their Instagram @taxidriverdoc.
