Tickets...


This is the final printed ticket for bikini kill, comes presented in outer transparent sleeve with foiled VIP indication.

Below: First printed version of ticket, printed onto plain white paper, this stock was not appropriate as it is too flimsy and looks cheap and tacky and does not compliment design.
Below: Refined version of ticket, made adjustments so that when printed double sided everything would line up effectively.

Below: This is the final compositon and design for my Bikini Kill tickets. I will be putting a foil gloss on the 'VIP' type to make the design stand out and give it more authority over a standard ticket.
I will have to produce both normal and VIP ticket.

From my initial designs I took my ideas into illustrator and created my tickets, they are going to be A format and will come packaged in a small, tight sleeve made out of tracing paper. The reason for me deciding on this is because I want them to be a bit more individual and unique and having a sleeve will one help prevent damaging the ticket and two if it looks more professional, sturdy there is a smaller chance that people will loose it or miss place it.
Below: Initial design development, thinking about format and information needed on a ticket for a night event. For night events it is alot more simple than for say a ticket for a show because then you have to include times, seatings, positions etc.

Business card design...

This is the business card for the Bikini Kill events. Using iconic imagery from the event on the front of the business card and on the reverse having the logo, address and contact details. I also printed it onto cartridge paper which is slightly thicker to make it more sturdy.

Envelope design for letter head...

The envelope design and letterhead placed together. I have added a stamp to the envelope to put the mail shot into context.

Reverse of envelope, i have included design on reverse to keep a consistency flowing.

This is how the letter sits inside the envelope, the bikini kill logo on the letterhead sits perfectly with the coloured pattern on the envelope making up the logo for Bikini Kill.

Below: This is the first envelope i made out of plain white paper, although this will match the letter head I feel that the envelope needs to be made out of better quality paper to enable it to with stand the post and feel more interactive when people pick it up.

First initial design for envelope below... needs to be more eye catching if it is going to be sent through the post so that people pick it up and read it! I am going to try printing onto different stocks to see if that improves the impact of the envelope!I have added extra detail to the envelope to make it more personal to Bikini Kill...

Letter head...

This is my final composition i will use for my letter head, with this i will also make a envelope for it to be sent in.
I made adjustments to the type, I changed the type face to make it more legible as 'Bebas' is quite hard to read when small and I changed the logo to be centered and also the contact information to be centered and the overall look now looks way more professional and accurate for a letterhead.

These are the two finals that I have decided to choose between. I am going to print both to see which looks more effective!


These are the examples of layouts i have produced for a proposed letter head that could be sent out in reference to the event. Either business related or to customers. Some of these are working where as others will not. If I am going to have the more colourful designs I am going to have to make sure that the transparency is really low so that anything typed onto letter is easily legible. The bottom two on the left I think are working the best. I also think that the top right design has potential also.

Promotional t shirt..

I wanted to place my design on to a promotional t-shirt. I felt that because everyone would have seen the poster i felt that it was only necessary to display the pattern onto the t shirt and that 'Bikini Kill' wasn't needed.Here i have placed the design onto a t-shirt that is being worn just to put it further into context and to give a feel of what it would look like on.
