Poster Date: 01-02-2011

Purpose: Performance by a punk rock group of girls in grade school.

Band / Musician(s): Cat Pop

Venue / Setting: J. Murphy’s / Shawnee, KS

Poster Print Size: Various, 8.5″x11″ & 11″x17″ (never saw a printed version) / Print Method: Poster(s) sent as digital files to promoter to print in-house, as well as for online promotion and distribution.

For Sale: NA = Original Art / Art Print: 

Additional Credits: Original digital idea and mock-up art by the band.

Note(s): As requested, the taking of “ANY liberties” with this fun project was had, but within reason, and in best tune to the girls’ original vision. As shown above, two event posters were ultimately made, vertical and horizontal, and with different design results and degrees of legibility. The initial poster was built entirely by hand, and potentially lead to being a little more punk rock and playful. However, one can argue the alternate poster (for online or limited space intention), comprising similar elements, plus the addition of cute cats made out of actual cat hair, is nothing short of the definition. In addition, the original vertical poster was designed with intent to be reversible, at least in its imagery sans typography. Unfortunately, schedules conflicted and I couldn’t attend the concert. I did hear that the poster was a big hit. It was one of my final DJG Design posters, and I consider it a fine scratch post. Odd to me now these young girls are grown women, but I sure hope the spirit of Cat Pop is strong.
