My tour poster

Before making my tour poster I had to do some research on my genre and see what fonts, images, headings and information about tours other artists posters were like to get idea’s for mine. Below is my slide show of a number of artists tour posters and what i have found out from them.

After finding this information about my genre, I then deiced to start my tour poster. I had a rough idea of the layout and what it would look like in my head, with the main things that I had learn’t from the others posters.

Above is my finished tour poster…. 

I am pleased with my final product of my poster and I feel like the picture of me being big really helps, especially filling in the extra gaps. My use of colours on the poster I feel like goes well as it links to what I am wearing in the picture. These colours of red, white and blue are also the colors of the American flag which links to the theme. The background of my name also has stars faded into it which links to it as well. One thing I could have done better was use some different fonts like old western handwriting and link them to genre and other posters. Another thing I could done to improve the poster would be to change the background. I found it really hard when designing it to find a background that would suit the genre and everything I tried I ended up getting rid of and just decided to have a grey one which still looks good.

Above is my feedback on my tour poster……

I feel like I have used AIDA well when working on my tour poster adding in all of the elements.

In conclusion, I am pleased with how this task went and happy with how my tour poster came out. I feel like the poster looks professional and could be used for a real artist. However in the future if I had more time there would be a few things I would change to make it better. But I know my editing skills  for photoshop and indesign are not amazing so it will be something to work on.
