TYPOGRAPHIC
POSTER EXPLORATION

A collection of four posters advertising the same fictional Jazz event, HOT LICKS, but each explores a distinct style of expression through typography and style.

IN A NUTSHELL

REPRESENTATIONAL
  • Typography

  • Poster Design

A poster using typography in a more linear format, where the type and title forwardly represents the subject of the design. In creating this, I made the word “Jazz” by collaging various materials to create an expressive illustration of common Jazz instruments. Additionally, the copy elements were photocopied and pasted in to maintain the style.

BIOMORPHIC

A poster using type that biomorphically represents some aspect or emotion related to the subject. With this poster, the type conveys the emotions and colors conveyed by each artist performing at the concert.

EXPOSITORY

A poster combining the objectives of both representational and expository (type that holds no further meaning other than to convey information).

COMBINATION

This iteration is the result of combining all previous versions of the poster together to make one amalgamation of design and typography.
