POSTER FOR CENTER STAGE EVENT


I designed this poster in my Graphic Design 1 class.  The assignment was to create a 13" x 20" poster for a musical group performing at BYU-I this winter.  The group I was assigned was a barber shop quartet group called The Perfect Gentlemen.  In this poster my concept was to create a 40's style that represented the time period of when barber shop quartets first started.  I used a Norman Rockwell picture of a quartet group and photoshopped the heads of The Perfect Gentlemen on top.  I also wanted to represent their musical voices by using the typography to represent sound waves.
