Post by **lucas** » Wed Jan 05, 2005 11:19 pm

Karl to do the initial artwork tonight.

Give us an update when you're done mate.

Hey, it just ocurred to me.

If we're going to be printing off a first run of flyers, they'll need to be done at 300dpi, yeah?

Did valuetime send you hi-res versions of his art work?

Hi-res Melbourne Beats logo here.

Yes but I need an EPS of the actual tape.. he only sent me a gif .. and A3 @ 300dpi is fucking massive .... its gonna look all blurry if I use it.

valuetime, where are ya!

Post by **lynt** » Wed Jan 05, 2005 11:57 pm

i'll use the blurry one as a place holder until i get the EPS from Dave.. should be sweet.....

Post by **lynt** » Thu Jan 06, 2005 2:24 am

i think this is only for the initial run of flyers, a quick mock up to get the word out over the weekend, then we're doing a slicker one for the massive run off yeah?

give us your thoughts, i admit im not a designer, so anyone who can volunteer their efforts in making one look prettier... please be my guest. though time is of the essance.

peace.

Look good to me too - only thing I'd do is see if the cassette in the background can stand out any more but apart from that, its pretty darn good.

i thinks it looks wickid :lol:

Post by **breaksRbest** » Thu Jan 06, 2005 9:25 am

lookin' good mate!

I just secured a printer to do 500 A5's for free and he can do them by this afternoon if I get him the artwork

will need a hi-rez pdf (or similar) ASAP

looks wicked

valuetime · Post by **valuetime** » Thu Jan 06, 2005 9:30 am

about to email you an eps of the tape image.

decided to have a quick crack at the poster and tried to simplify it a little. got rid of the coloured text because it'll prolly be a b/w print. i'll attach that as well so you can add the logos to the footer if you think it's ok.

Post by **breaksRbest** » Thu Jan 06, 2005 9:33 am

It'll be printed in 4 colour process

valuetime · Post by **valuetime** » Thu Jan 06, 2005 9:51 am

well, in that case... something like this?

eskay · Post by **eskay** » Thu Jan 06, 2005 9:57 am

hmm I kinda like the white background with Red Cross in Red

I like the tape with band aid like that though (as opposed to watermark) - cleaner and easier to see

i'd swap the date / venue / cost and the acts around....

dave to save the day, wicked

Guest · Post by **Guest** » Thu Jan 06, 2005 10:04 am

given the small amount of promo time I'd put the elements that will draw interest as high profile as possible

ACTS
PURPOSE

then BLURB

then DATE

then COST and logo placements

On a double sided flyer you can spend more time on aesthetics, but for a one sided you gotta make sure nothing gets lost.

but clear typeface, great colours and a great image ... ill flyer for .24 seconds turnaround time valuetime

We need to say $20 MIN!

Ani · Post by **Ani** » Thu Jan 06, 2005 10:16 am

The white one looks smart, and the red one grabs the attention right away. Can we do red for posters, and white for flyers? Since we're habding the flyers straight to people?

valuetime · Post by **valuetime** » Thu Jan 06, 2005 10:21 am

imho, it's prolly best to pick one colour or the other for consistency and simplicity. but happy to do two versions.

lynt, are you happy for me to do it? if so, can you send those footer logos you've got on your version (agentmad, etc)?

Ani · Post by **Ani** » Thu Jan 06, 2005 10:22 am

i agree, but it's so hard to choose!! lol... you guys make the call.

beatski · Post by **beatski** » Thu Jan 06, 2005 10:36 am

The red is alot more eye catching! A red cross logo would be good also...I can supply one from work if needed.

valuetime · Post by **valuetime** » Thu Jan 06, 2005 10:43 am

legal implications of using their logo... ani? are they supporting the event at all?

Ani · Post by **Ani** » Thu Jan 06, 2005 10:45 am

I don't believe we have actually contacted them, so they aren't 'supporting' us. I'm sure they'll take our money, but I think it would be safer not to use their logo without their permission. Don't want to run any risks.... I think we should leave it as saying that all donations go there

Ani · Post by **Ani** » Thu Jan 06, 2005 10:47 am

I'm going to try and call them now to make sure we can actually say that the money goes to them....

Ani · Post by **Ani** » Thu Jan 06, 2005 10:52 am

Done... they have no issues with us saying: "All prodeeds from this event will go to support the Australian Red Cross Asia Quake and Tsunami Appeal" or something to that effect. But we CAN NOT use the logo....

valuetime · Post by **valuetime** » Thu Jan 06, 2005 11:16 am

here we go. latest lineup additions...

(i just guessed at the order of the acts.)

Ani · Post by **Ani** » Thu Jan 06, 2005 11:19 am

Is Tsunami pluralised? Like on the Red Cross site?

Look great though.

Post by **lynt** » Thu Jan 06, 2005 11:23 am

dont mean to be a pain , but the on the white flyer, the beats logo should be inverted w/o black background

looks fucking great!!

Post by **breaksRbest** » Thu Jan 06, 2005 11:23 am

need to tell them that it starts at 9pm

eskay · Post by **eskay** » Thu Jan 06, 2005 11:23 am

top marks.

yeah I'd say Tsunami as in singular not pluralised... being picky I know :lol:

and yeah what bRb said too

Ani · Post by **Ani** » Thu Jan 06, 2005 11:24 am

I believe the word is now to go with Tsunami as singular...

Everything else looks sweet to me!

Ani · Post by **Ani** » Thu Jan 06, 2005 11:25 am

oh yeah... start time. Didn't occur to me. Good to have so many people watching these things!

valuetime · Post by **valuetime** » Thu Jan 06, 2005 11:34 am

ok, changes to lineup and tsunami bit made.

also included an alternate layout that gets the artists off the bottom of the bill...

when's the deadline for this anyway?

Post by **lynt** » Thu Jan 06, 2005 11:35 am

im down with the bottom one.

Ani · Post by **Ani** » Thu Jan 06, 2005 11:35 am

I like the second one....

valuetime · Post by **valuetime** » Thu Jan 06, 2005 11:38 am

yeah me too.

eskay · Post by **eskay** » Thu Jan 06, 2005 11:40 am

second one works for me

Ani · Post by **Ani** » Thu Jan 06, 2005 11:42 am

dave, can we add in time doors open? 9pm...

EDIT.. never mind..... :oops:

eskay · Post by **eskay** » Thu Jan 06, 2005 11:47 am

Just had a suggestion - Put the price next to "Show Your Support" - makes sense I think

(and sell em on the DJs before you tell em how much it is)

LÃ³s Kasinoâ€” · Post by **LÃ³s Kasinoâ€”** » Thu Jan 06, 2005 11:50 am

Bottom ones a winner...

valuetime · Post by **valuetime** » Thu Jan 06, 2005 11:50 am

eskay · Post by **eskay** » Thu Jan 06, 2005 11:52 am

Post by **breaksRbest** » Thu Jan 06, 2005 11:54 am

Post by **lynt** » Thu Jan 06, 2005 11:56 am

Ani · Post by **Ani** » Thu Jan 06, 2005 11:57 am
