JUST A QUICKIE

EASY PEOPLE!!

Ok, so i’m at work on Tuesday and this dude i work with, who also happens to be a DJ approaches me with this problem he’s encountered with a designer who had promised to create a flyer for a New Years Eve bash he was organising with a group of promoters. Basically the designer had left them in the lurch for about two weeks with no soild certification of when his design would be complete. I was approached and asked if i wanted to take on the project. 

I was still a little burned out from the previous weeks deadline at SuperSuper, but at the same time i was excited to work on something that was quite different from the magazine and would take me back to my illustration roots; also i liked the idea of being in competition with another designer. See he was who they first approached, so they had time to sit down and discuss a general plan and creative feel for the flyer, i was told i had a day to do something eye catching and interesting that people would want to pick up, which in itself was a challenging incentive because with him they had a rough idea of what they were expecting and with me i had a short time to produce something that the collective wanted to back and would outshine the first designers’ initial proposal. 

I don’t know about u but i think i delivered. I knocked this out in about 5 or so hours Wednesday afternoon, quite an interesting brief as they didn’t want anything figurative (which is my strength) and i was restricted to only working in black and white. A challenge none the less, but an enjoyable one that was a pleasure to confront.
