I have begun my research into adverts which got classical music in it. This video have a few American adverts all using different kinds of classical music to engage with their audience.

The music in this commercial is used to ad tension. the music builds up and is then somehow broken by the images and text. The music is very coyotic like our lifes, Because they have been corrupted by technology, however this new technology is supposed to make our life’s less chaotic, the commercial is paradoxical because the music invades chaos and disorder, but the phone is supposed to bring organization.

Making a custom vectorised gig poster is never easy. Check out DKNG Studio’s process of making the poster for The Black Keys. All in all this took over 40 hours of work.

Final Boards

[danielanthonybaird-blog]

These are the posters for my campaign. I think these may be the final designs but I'm still not 100% sure on them. I’ve tried to keep it similar to the style of my listings flyer in the sense that they're both hand made (lino) and the same colours. I have also keep the sound wave kind of style that I used on the flyers. I may print these on the riso as well just so they have the same style throughout. When it’s printed on the riso its doesn't really come out perfect quality but I really like this look and I feel that will tie it all in together a bit more.

This what part of the process for the flyer. As this was printed on the risograph I had to separate all the different colours into different layers then print them out. Once they’re printed out I had to scan them in on the risograph and then set up each layer as a master on the printer then print off each colour. It sounds like a complicated procedure but it is really quite simple once you get used to it. The look of the final pieces are very good as it gives it the originality of a screen print but takes a lot less time to produce. The risograph is also very low cost and effective, just as Sonic Manchester want, a low cost offline option.

In my research of Sexual faces, I stumble upon this blog by the user Moyo.

I find this experiment to be really exciting, but also a very personal thing that most people wouldn’t want to share online.
