New Work: Graduation Ball branding

 NTU Graduation Ball teaser campaign poster

I recently created the branding and promotional artwork for Nottingham Trent University’s official Graduation Ball. Following a brief based around the theme of ‘celebration, using classical elements with an edge’, I designed artwork for a multi-stage campaign based around brightly coloured confetti and typography which uses a ghosting effect against a black background to suggest strobe lighting and the energy and atmosphere of a concert arena.

Above is the poster artwork for the initial teaser campaign, which only gave away the date. Musical artists and other entertainment acts were revealed in a serialised manner over the course of a month to build anticipation, with a new batch of promotional artwork produced to accompany each stage of the campaign.

New Work: ClubNME posters

Club NME poster

The Club NME live music night has hit Nottingham! I’ve been creating the promo artwork for the fortnightly events since the launch night at the start of February. The poster design above is a re-usable template which I created to allow each night to use consistent branding, creating an instantly recognisable identity. It is easily updatable; a quick date change and a switch of the band names on the roster (and maybe a colour change for the pink and/or grey elements) means that creating a new batch of posters for each individual event can be done in a matter of minutes, if not seconds.
