Queen's Radio Poster Designs




Yay for proper design work! Once again, my hobbies allowed me to connect with my graphic design skills! A friend I met through cosplay commissioned me to design some posters for Queen's Radio. 

The main one was for a night in September, where people could request songs. Because of this, the night was called 'Queens Jukebox.' The QR Group requested that I include an old jukebox, as well as some 'soundwaves' coming from it to represesnt the music. I also decided I wanted to go for a retro, faded textured style. I added folds, old textures and went for some retro inspired fonts.

The top image is the poster/flyer which was mass printed and used heavily to promote the event. The second is the reworked, landscape format for the facebook page. It was quite surreal seeing my own work all over Queen's University!

I was also asked to design a simple recruitment poster for the Queen's Fresher Day. The design was to be kept basic, communicating the relevant contact information. I decided to keep it thematically similar by adding creased paper textures, as well as nautical stars, at the client's request.

Overall, I am happy with how these turned out and it was fun getting paid design work, which was featured so heavily across both social media, as well as on the Queen's campus itself!
