MELBOURNE CUP CALCUTTA

The Melbourne cup Calcutta is a yearly event at most clubs/pubs which involves the purchase of tickets into a draw to win a horse in the field of the Melbourne Cup. The horses are then auctioned off to the highest bidders.

2015 saw the event hosted by local member Tim Bailey from Channel Ten for the first time. Having come to know the weatherman over the years he gladly accepted my proposal of super imposing and accentuating his head onto a Melbourne Cup jockey riding down the straight. With this I wanted Tim to be the absolute focus of the design to capture the audience and promote the partnership between the Narrabeen RSL and Tim for the event.
