Project #7 — Wicked Hangin' Chads Concert — Poster

This project was a poster for my Service Learning client—the Media Arts and Technology Department on MWCC's Gardner campus. Not knowing if most students would know who Wicked Hangin' Chads was as a group, I focused on the type of music they play—rockin' reggae fusion. The concert provided an opportunity for sound and video students to practice recording a concert while also hoping to raise some money for concerts in future years.

Changes Suggested:
1. Make heads not so warped on left and right of picture.
2. Make sure MWCC blues are consistent throughout the piece.
3. Line up blue shape on left edge.
4. Check shadow of Rockin' VS Wicked Hangin' Chads.
5. Dreadlocks guy shirt seems to overlap sleeveless guy's shirt.
6. Should arm be in background near center?

Changes Done:
I had a hard time unwarping the heads, so I changed the clipping paths on their heads instead. Truth be told, I think that was more of the issue anyway.

I made changes 2-4 as suggested.

On 5, I realized it was a scarf overlapping the sleeveless guy's arm and decided to leave it as is.

For 6, I changed the clipping path to remove the mystery arm behind the sleeveless guy and dreadlocks guy.

  1. I don't have any further comments - this looks good. Have you presented it to the client yet?

  2. The minor tweaks I did are mainly for the portfolio. The event was a couple weeks ago. I'm just waiting for the remaining images, text, and DVD so that I may design the DVD cover for them. They need to edit the concert audio and video first. They are aware I am waiting for them to take the next step.
