Gig Poster 

For one of our projects we were challenged to create a poster for a band that was chosen by one of our teachers. I worked on a poster for the Velveteers, a rock band.

 

The inspiration for this project came from looking at who this band was. They were into dark colors that almost fit the velvet look, with fish net tights and sunglasses. There was one song that they had that was fun and really spoke to people so I focused on what I could do with that. I chose the background because it matched what type of music they played, then I chose to put there instruments to show who they were and what they played. Now the information and print is bright pink which you might feel doesn't match. But to them and their music it fits right in.

During this project I learn a lot about selecting images and secluding them so I could add them to a background to create the look for this project. The instruments and the background are completely different images. I also spent a lot of time before and after looking at the text and deciding how to fix it to make it flow and look better. I had to learn how to make shadows and angle the text at the top to try and make it feel like it was blending in.
