Our final project was to create a typographic gig poster for an artist of our choosing. It could be any musical artist from any time period, but it was to be an existing artist. Our job was to create a typography forward design that properly communicated the details of the show and using typefaces, colors, and themes, that best exemplified our artist’s musical style.
I chose to create a poster for Drake’s upcoming event in Chicago, IL. After going through majority of his previous album covers, posters, and merchandise, I chose to stick with the theme of minimalism. I portrayed this theme by keeping the colors, and font relatively subtle.
This poster is at 11″ x 17″
