Student Government Event Posters
I served as the Communications Coordinator of Traditional Media at my university, which meant I was responsible for designing all of the promotional material for school events. With the university being in Nashville, we chose our theme to be:
Welcome to Music City: Weeks of Welcome tour.
As the designer and creative lead for each poster, I decided to make each one resemblant of a concert poster from different eras and genres of music.
The first poster was inspired by 50s Jazz posters. The different rectangles are meant to be the "block" part of Block Party, while the piano notes resemble sky scrapers similar to ones seen in Nashville. Every element aside from typeface was hand made in Illustrator.
The second poster was inspired by the band Rush, and other bands in their era. The "Rush" reference is evident through the typeface and the title, while the lightning reinforces the style and the idea of rushing to different clubs. Every element aside from typeface was hand made in Illustrator.
The third poster was inspired by the psychedelic 70s concert posters. The font and and color pallet were heavily inspired from posters of the era, while the paint dripping at bottom is reinforcing the event: paint-a-palooza. Every element aside from typeface was hand made in Illustrator.
The fourth poster was inspired by Nashville concert posters. From the Nashville skyline, to the roosters, everything is Nashville.
The fourth poster was inspired by modern soul duo Silk Sonic and 70s disco posters. Silk Sonic was very popular at the university and thus received instant recognition.
The sixth poster was inspired by 90s pop art and concert posters from the 80s. Every element aside from typeface was hand made in Illustrator.
The seventh poster was heavily inspired by Cory Wong posters, an artist who is very popular at my university.
The eighth poster was a redesign of a classic Selena poster for a showing of the Selena movie.
