Meat Space

Promotional material

May 2014

Meat Space_ is a show name invented for the purposes of university coursework. The requirements were to make a range of promotional materials for print including a poster advertisement and a a magazine double page spread. Through thorough research I was able to come up with a range of ideas of different styles and layouts.

Most of the designs and prints that I create are through trial and error and many prototypes are made for comparison and development. This method was used in the creation of the poster in which an experimentation with several different colours was undertaken.

Using Photoshop a logo was created to be used throughout the promotional materials and to represent the show overall. The name of the show has been selected as meat space_ as this is tech jargon and suitable to the nature of the show. Also the use of lowercase white wording with a thick black outline keeps the logo neat and modern yet stands out.

The poster was created using Photoshop and the majority of the graphics are original and created by myself. The poster has contrasting yet complimenting colours and suited to the intended target audience.

A double page magazine spread focusing on an actor which plays a fictional character was also created as part of the promotional material. The magazine spread was created using InDesign and original photographs were used and based on the layout of independent magazines.
