Client: Target Center
Year: 2024
Project: Gig posters
Target Center, a music venue in Minneapolis, commissioned me to create a series of posters for their summer shows. These were given to staff as exclusive memorability. I had a lot of creative freedom with these so I played with some different styles that I felt best fit the bands but could still live together as a series. I was especially stoked to work on posters for Blink 182 and Fall Out Boy as I've been a fan since I was a kid.
Although these were printed using a digital method which would allow for unlimited colors, I still like to work within a restricted color palette and designs that could be easily translated to silk screen as that's typically the medium for this kind of project.

Here are some of those directions:
