This is the Manipulate Festival 2025 programme guide which uses a variation of the design of the poster (see previous posts) as a front cover, alongside a gradient background taken from the poster design with colours from Yifei Xiang’s illustration. In order to fit a lot of information in a small space, the typography sets up a hierarchy of information for the various events of the festival including use of symbols to indicate wheelchair access etc. The programme guide is 8 pages, double gatefold, folded to A5, it is printed on an uncoated paper.
