Discuss the style of the design & typography, how it relates to history: This fits the art nouveau period perfectly. I have a woman figure, with 'speggitti' hair surrounded by flowers and complex patterns. Above her head written in a decrotive, hand written font is the name of the band.

Discuss the style of the design & typography, how it relates to history: This is a great example of a victorian poster, text piled up on one another with so many kinds of font it will spin your head. I went with bold almost slab serrif fonts to portray this 'broad side' quality where you see the poster, get the important parts and go.

I really like how you made the second one (Victorian style) really professional looking... I mean it looks as if that is one of Panic! at the Disco's concert posters. I also really liked the Art Nouveau sketch, because it fits the style PERFECTLY! It's really pretty and done very well. I just wish that you would have put some color into it just so we could see all the detail you put into it better! Great Job though!
ReplyDeleteVictorian - You definitely have a handle on this style. My only concern (if you decide to proceed further with this design) is that the typography and the background image are two different styles. You have a great old style looking paper with very computerized and crisp lettering. I would suggest pushing the letters to have a bit more tarnish to them, as if they've been hanging up for awhile. Also, the center line of type seems to be too long and condensed. I would suggest splitting that line in two and possibly uping the point size a bit - just to maintain some idea of legibility.
ReplyDeleteArt Nouveau - Not much to say about this one. You really have a talent for drawing. There's a lot of detail and it is very art nouveau. My only question is what kind of poster are you wanting this to be? Strictly a band poster? Or should it promoting a particular event the band is performing at? Either way, I think you're good.
I'm not in your group, I know...but I love these designs! The first design totally relates well with Art Nouveau. I love how detailed this design is. I love the variety of fonts you used in the Victorian design. You also chose very interesting colors; they work very well together.
