Khaliko @ The Whale

Procreate & Adobe Photoshop

Overview

The goal of this project was to create a promotional graphic for a local music venue "The Whale". This specific concert featured 3 bands: Khaliko, Uniqo, and Emergency Introspective.

Approach

My inspiration for this poster was to capture the energy of an underground music event. The rough, textured background was inspired by graffiti and brushstrokes. I also chose a bold color palette- red, black and white- to create high contrast. All of the typography of this graphic was designed by me. I chose hand-drawn, irregular style to emphasize a DIY feel.

While designing this poster, I wanted to evoke movement and excitement for the show.
