For this project, I was tasked with creating the promotional material for a concert with the DJ "Disco Lines" and "TWINSICK. This endeavor involved extensive collaboration with other designers, the Pure Options marketing team, and both of the performers' marketing teams.We knew our target audience was the 21-30 demographic, and we wanted to create visuals and have elements that spoke to that group.
The first phase of the project involved establishing a visual identity for the brand. The artists and Pure Options collaborated heavily to develop a look that everyone agreed upon. We went through several iterations before arriving at the final design. When going into the project, I knew I wanted to bring in this bright blue to make it pop from the page, and give it the morphed disco ball in the background.
The initial drafts feature colors that match the "Disco Lines" branding aesthetic. I experimented with various layouts while trying to incorporate some common visuals that he used in his sets. From research, I found that he often used bright colors, mushroom and graphics as visuals between his merch and during his concerts. Additionally, I included illustrations to capture a fun and hippie-inspired atmosphere.

The final graphic uses fewer illustrations to make the information the highlight of the poster, while promoting the various sponsors. This also made recreating the visual into different media easier to achieve. During this process, we worked with Disco Line's team to create something that would work for his brand, as well as ours.
We then went ahead and transformed the poster into prints, billboards, in-store graphics, social graphics, and email advertisements throughout the Pure Options store and the general Lansing area.
