Can you do a hi quality of a big unicorn flying through an electrical storm with some trees and also some people dancing around a totem pole without shoes on.

The unicorn should look friendly but determined. Feel free to jazz him up with a designer belt or a headscarf.

The people should look like the kind of crew you would really want to party with. I want people who see the poster to empathise with them and think "shit, what am I doing on Saturday".

Can the totem pole also represent all styles of music except the boring ones.

Down the bottom can you put

"BIG RAVE THIS SAT, BYO DRUGS"

Thanks.

Positives:

- These people seem really nice and approachable.
- They all seem aware of the unicorn, but are not scared by it
- Rave setting

Negatives:

- Designed has major problems reading / understanding brief, seems to be focused on Unicorn. Possible unicorn fancier.
- Too short a face for a Unicorn, not a good face to horn ratio.
- Unicorn seems more concerned with being photographed than flying through an electrical storm.


I rate this 2/10[/list]

Wow! I'm really enjoying the way that you read the brief and then you made it happen. I also like the way you can TELL this was made on a Mac or by someone with an iPod/iPhone. It sure looks like you have a great career in graphic design ahead of you from where I'm sitting!

Positives:

  • Unicorn is fashionable yet determined while navigating a KILLER storm.

  • Group of friends (including some minorities, take that stereotypes!) all look approachable (except maybe the black guy) and good value. I really like how the "kingpin" in the middle is willing to share the love with his dawgs.

  • MOTHERFUCKING LASERS!

  • Dancing girls - totally outside the brief but totally adds to the perceived good times on Saturday. Top job.

  • Great overall cohesion
    [/list:u]
    Negatives:

    • Well the totem pole doesn't say anything about genre to me, maybe at least put some headphones on the bird looking thing in the middle?

    • Brackets round BYO DRUGS, I don't want to be picky but I don't want it too look like the host isn't totally up for it and hiding clauses in the fine print. Let's keep it LARGE AND IN CHARGE.
      [/list:u]

      Top effort overall, slap hands, round of cokes in the boardroom, back to work.

Now we are talking.

Positives

  • I really like Neil Patrick Harris. To me it says not only is he benevolently watching over the party (cut your hand - here to help!), he endorses it as well. And what an endorsement!

  • I also like the chick in the pink pants who is all like 'BA BOOM' with her ass. If you were there and kinda bummed out cause your cat wasn't well or you were having trouble at school then she came over (BA BOOM!) you'd be totally hyped arms akimbo loving the music. In the zone, take a few, mental night.

  • Everyone on the poster seems to be on a totally different vibe, but the vibe is still uplifting and fun (obviously not a Dubstep gig!). We have BA BOOM, some chick trying the old double headed teapot, a hippy rocking out, and someone totally lost in the tunes. We also have the chick on the right who is separated from her friends but still LOVING LIFE. I like the suggestion that this might be a multi zone rave here.

  • What a totem pole!
    [/list:u]

    Negatives

    • The unicorn reminds me of a ringleader. Don't get me wrong I like the circus, but I think with NPH on the scene we may have too many cocks in the ring if you get my drift. Maybe change the angle and put some "motion lines" around him because that is how serious artists show things are moving really fast.
      [/list:u]

      Top effort!

Not very good with photoshop, but here you go.

The top of the totem pole changes with each genre being played at the time.

Here I have pictured "Trance"

Although probably could have done with some shirtless guys as well.

Holy shit!

Ritchie Hawtin may be willing to license this "Totem pole" idea off you. Especially if it can somehow be modified to know how many Kontakt members are in the club. Seriously get a patent on this now!

Positives

  • Totally dope Unicorn, I wouldn't be at all surprised if it showed up all +100 on thealist.co.nz tomorrow! Is that bunches of grapes and strawberries on the headband? I think it is? Shazam, instant fashion. Are you in the industry?

  • This party is going OFF. You are also the first person to really embrace the no shoes idea. I mean who wants to party in heels? Well the chick in the back does obviously, but she isn't hanging with the in crowd anyway so she can eat a dick.

  • Loving the trees. SRSLY SMMR!

  • A perfect storm.
    [/list:u]

I like the stylised approach in this one. Very design 2008.

Positives

  • I can just TELL that girl is hot. Although I am a little confused at why she has green wings? Is this a buzzy bee reference?

  • RED and BLUE lightening. Sick bro.

  • I like the way the totem pole is part of the party. Why shouldn't it be? It has a right to rave too.
    [/list:u]
    Negatives

    • The unicorn seems to be ensnared by a small group of birds. Terrorists to be honest. I bet they ruin this party and then Jonny won't be able to sneak in with a hip flask and ten pack. Complete disaster.

    • Large red hemorrhaging heart in the sky. Just bad foreshadowing really.
      [/list:u]

The Totem Pole accepts all genres apart from shit ones. Note the shutter shades for electro house, hoodie for dnb, amstel for breaks, lollipops for hardhouse and lasers for trance. Nothing for dubstep...unfortunately... Sad

I am interested in how your totem pole works? It seems like it is running your party, what an interesting concept. One time I went to Alpine Unity and they had those big things with the arms that come at you in the wind. Is this similar?

Positives:

  • I like how dubstep is represented as the ugly little bottom bit on the totem pole. Very apt. High fives all around

  • Woah! Look at those girls on the right. All the guys just love it when you dance sexy like that. It's not too crass or whorey. You look like a princess!

  • What a concept to have the unicorn talking! Ideas this good usually only come from a round table. Gold star.

  • I really like the party vibe represented here. If you come, you're gonna have a GOOD TIME.
    [/list:u]

    Negatives

    • Not sure about the unicorn. Looks a little like he is made out of marble? Would explain the wings at least. That shit is heavy.

    • Not sure about white hoodie with bright text for DnB. Perhaps a trip to Christchurch will clear this up?
      [/list:u]

      Another great effort though!

But why?

It shows your complete and utter commitment to quality and quite frankly, more profesional designers such as yourself should take note. You clearly enjoy your craftand take time and consideration in every step of the design process.

I think that would be a shame davil - the thread documents the evolution of your design.

LOLLLLLLLLLLLLL thanks just. Ya I would like to note that I made an effort to include everything the client requested, on the poster.

- Electrical storm
- BIG unicorn flying through storm (designer scarf or belt optional), determined yet friendly (everyone knows Charlie is a goodone)
- Trees
- People dancing without shoes, crew you'd like to party with
- Totem pole, representing all genres apart from the shit ones
- Text


My picks are Davils for the LOL factor, Spikes cause of the plunger horn, and Kats cause of the sunglasses and scarf on her unicorn - and hers is quite pleasing to the eye.
