POSTERS FOR VIVID SERIES

Poster design for Vivid series is a long-term design project I did for my friend who has been organising the raving and party label “Vivid”. Vivids are normally held in the middle of the week at this electronic themed club called Wigwam, located in Beijing. The overall atmosphere of the event is normally chilling and cozy, therefore visual promotion is an essential method to communicate to and attract potential audience.

Normally the organiser of the event would describe to me the essential theme of the music that he and other DJ would be playing; I would then produce trail posters. Finally I would do the adujstments he wanted me to solve.

Initially, the promoter of the event wanted exotic and vibrant electronic music to be played on those events. Such information should be communicated visually. Thus the use of camel, desert, tropical plants as essential elements in the poster. Serif and curlicue fonts was used to fit such purpose. Collage was the main design methodology fo this poster design.
