Where's Your Head at?

Me and my Buddy have been given the job by the brickyard to redesign their regular indie night poster because it has not changed in over two years. So since the brief was given we have both tried different layouts and approaches. None of which have been confirmed so far. but we will get there eventually.

so  I have been Trying out new designs and layouts for this indie poster because no one is sure what they want for the end product. I have applied my current favourite type positioning to the idea of people losing there head over the music that they love. Collage has to be some where according to the brief that we have been given

Concrete Jungle

Bloc Party can hunt for witches and I can hunt for work. I have been messaging companies on companies asking if they need any work doing. I have been asking; cafe's, Bar's and anywhere that I can think of. I got a number of rejections but one reply was from the biggest clubs in Carlisle, concrete. They wanted two posters both in quick succession. One for a UV Party and one for a Battle of the Halls event both to be held at their low ceiling venue. Glad they liked the style of them as it's something different to the standard club night poster. 

Rave like no one is watching.

This is a song by Jamie XX, a great song by Jamie XX. A man on a mission to bring back house music to the fore. A member of The XX; that really cool band which hipsters love. Nevermind that. This is a poster that could be used for one of his DJ nights (if he has them). I like designing night club posters and this one is one of my personal favourtes.

Nightclubbing

 More than just a song by Grace Jones, it is a concept, where people go out on a night and enjoy themselves and consume alcohol. Never been much of a fan of it but one thing I know about it is it normally is promoted with some really bad posters done by the PR staff in the back of the clubs office. Below are the alternatives. I have made up some Club nights and made posters for the them. None of have out of date or blurry pictures of drunk people or stock images of people enjoying themselves. To me these are the type of posters designers want to see and go to on a night out.
