Rossman Art produced this tri-fold media guide cover with Photoshop and Illustrator for the Stanford University Athletics Department in collaboration with Terry Smith Creations. This work is one of a larger body of award winning media guides produced for Stanford’s football and basketball programs between the years 1997-2007.
Stanford University’s athletics department commissioned Rossman Art to produce sports media guide covers for their football and basketball organizations during 1997-2007, which was when the Matrix films debuted and became part of the popular culture. Rossman Art produced this Basketball Media Guide Cover in collaboration with Terry Smith Creations for Stanford University’s 2004 basketball season. A major purpose for this and other media guides is as a recruiting tool to new players. Media guide covers are often the first introduction for these potential All-Stars. Therefore, an identifiable and eye-catching image is paramount. This design captured that goal in a timely fashion.

The purpose of the new WordPress site was to preserve contributor’s legacy content while providing a better social platform for all subscribers to interact within.
