Poster

We talked over ideas and plans for the poster as group, just as we did for the digipak. Again we talked about not featuring Leo our singers face on the poster. If we chose not to put his face on the front of the digipak, we should also not place his face on the poster, if we wish to conform to the style of this genre of music. By not placing his face on the poster, hopefully it will also draw people in who have an interest in similar music to our band, just as we hope the digipak will do. 

After an experiment (left), of trying to make a poster with Leo on it we decided that this was definitely not right for the style and genre of the music. 









We decided to stick with the idea of using nature to bring in a certain target audience rather than trying to bring in anyone to listen to our band. We looked through our stills taken on our shoot day and found a simple nature style photo which fitted perfectly (right).
























We decided that whatever font we decide to use for the digi pack, we should also use on the poster as a synergistic use of the font. Due to this genre of music we thought it appropriate to choose small gig venues and pubs in places that appealed to certain types of people who might listen to this style music; over London, Nottingham and Oxford.
