Çakti Aswan reveals latest poster design

In 2006, I co-promoted the Mosconi Cup, when it was held in Rotterdam's Cruise Terminal. That's when my work for Matchroom Sport began with the Mosconi Cup logo, which is now recognised worldwide. Since, the logo has been tweaked and refreshed.

My design work extends to the World Pool Masters, World Cup of Pool, World Championship of Ping Pong, Weber Cup, Fish'O'Mania and Prize Fighter. Designing artwork for these events starts with an event logo: it needs to appeal directly towards its audience, incorporate the main sponsor's logo and be suitable for TV and other applications.

Generally, the design of an event logo is followed by the conception of a poster, flyer, programme and diverse internet banners. Making sure all artwork is consistent in style is key, because we want to project a professional image and live up to Matchroom Sport's reputation. Each event has become an acclaimed brand which the audience, the fans and partners can relate to.

I've been using the CorelDraw Suite - vector and bitmap oriented - since 1993, back then, release 3 and nowadays, X5. People frequently ask why I'm not using Adobe software (Photoshop and Illustrator). Well, my background is industrial design engineering and 3D CAD software used to run exclusively on MS-DOS, later Windows. Hence, the choice for the CorelDraw Suite, which runs in Windows, whereas Adobe graphic design software used to run only on Apple. I've become an expert in CorelDraw and Corel Photopaint. So, I stick to it.

Come to think of it, mentioning sticks, let's play pool!
