Musical bowling pins, magenta, and cooper black
So I have a new poster out for Maine Academy of Modern Music’s series of concerts at Yankee Lanes. I really love making these posters! I am trying to go for a fun feel for them as the concerts for by kids, and really, for kids (and their parents). Hopefully you will see more of these posters as time goes on.
This was a tough poster to pull off. The concert is titled “girls rock!” and they have female speakers during the concert as well. I really didn’t want to make my poster vomit hearts and puppies, but at the same time I didn’t want to seem feminist as well. I think the magenta and cooper typefaces make a gentle poster that kind of sits in the middle of those extremes. I consider this poster a success. Again, this is a poster that is about you kids concert, but adults are involved as well and so I didn’t want to see as whimsical as the first poster. This was a fun, challenging poster, and I am glad to have a part in advertising for the events!
