For this project we were required to create a poster for an event around us that had happened recently or was upcoming. I chose to create a flyer for The Rocky Horror Masquerade Ball in Birmingham. I'm a fan of the movie and I love the event.
I started out with some very basic lettering and the iconic Rocky Horror lips. I felt the lips and the Double Feature font would be very easily recognizable.
I then decided to start working on a really cool typography block at the bottom of the poster. This block is intended to hold all of the relevant information for the event in an eye-catching way.
I made some minor adjustments to spacing, kerning, and tracking and this is the final result of the block.
Here is the outline view of the poster in its entirety.
And here is the final poster.
