The first piece I’m writing about here is one that I just made for fun without any real purpose, so I never really got feedback on it. I was bored one night about a month ago so I decided to make a tour poster for Pottercast, using all the shiny new knowledge I had acquired in my Typography and History of Graphic Design classes. I was inspired by a lecture we had had in History of GD about political posters from the 1800s (including one amazing poster for Lincoln which I am very annoyed I cannot find online). Overall I’m pretty happy with it, though I’m still second-guessing the decorative borders on the sides. If anyone has any comments or suggestions, I’d love to hear them!
The typefaces used are Joanna, Impact, Clarendon, Playbill, and Wingdings.
