Assignment
Owen was asked by US promoters Another Planet Entertainment to create a limited edition poster for Canadian Indie rock band Arcade Fire and special guest, Grizzly Bear.
Approach
The design was inspired by the band’s latest album Everything Now, with Owen creating a bespoke typeface for all the text with a fittingly retro-future feel, as well as reinterpreting a selection of the logos from the record. The design was drawn up digitally and then handcrafted out of paper, using a range of layers to add an interesting visual depth. The final artwork was shot in our studio using natural light to give nice soft shadows, helping to define the forms.
Results
The final poster was a huge hit both with Another Planet Entertainment and with the bands, who were given copies of the poster by the promoters as a thank you for playing the show.
