Illustrated podcast cover series
A series of illustrated podcast covers created for Kalsony Belunga, a Russian-language cultural podcast dedicated to opera, classical music, and contemporary musical life in Germany. Hosted by musicians Sasha Polivanov and Nikita Dubov, the podcast explores concerts, musical events, and the people shaping today’s academic music scene.
The project combines professional musical insight with an ironic, playful, and theatrical tone. The visual concept was developed as a cohesive series, drawing on stage aesthetics, carnival imagery, and folk-inspired motifs. Bold colors, decorative compositions, and recurring characters emphasize the performative nature of the podcast and establish a distinctive visual identity across episodes.
