The goal of this serie of flyers is to be simple and effective.
I am the event organizer of those parties as well as the DJ and the graphic designer. So I need the design to do the job well and to be adaptable. My goal is to spend the least time possible on designing a new variation.
I did not want to use the usual templates for those kind of events : sexy girls, a couple of items in the background and some shiny typography. I still want to keep some originality.
So I combined a couple of things to make them easily recognizable :
- a picture of a single rapper (most of the time black and white)
- some kind of typographic logo : the "Ink" with the base line "HipHop Party".
- a plain or gradient background
- one main easily recognizable colour for each version
I tried a couple of variation on number 9 and 10.
But I plan on switching back to a very simple version as you see on number 11.
Let me know what you think of those.
