The last lesson task this week was to design a Gig Poster and a pamphlet for a band´s gig.
- Design a poster for a band’s gig. The band is called: “The Keystrokes.”
You can decide the name of the band’s tour and remember to include a date, a time and a venue.
You can use a visuals and/or typography to design the poster and remember to make the type work with the rest of the design. Show us your type skills in this one.
Use an A3 format at 297 x 420mm. - Expand your design to include a pamphlet that outlines dates and further details of the tour i.e. merchandise available: T-shirts, caps and CDs or a promotion – Free drink on arrival.
Remember this design must be consistent with your poster design. The pamphlet can be any size or format. Have a look online for inspiration.
The first thing I did was to go online to look for inspiration and made a moodboard. I looked for what I needed to include both in the poster and pamphlet and I also looked for inspiration for how I wanted the design to look like. I also drew a sketch, but just a simple one with the colors I wanted to use in the design.
I wanted to have a «Summer tour» and I wanted the design to look «warm» and kind of a 70´s vibe to it.
