PORTACOPE PRINT AD / EVENT POSTERS

THIS POSTER WAS DESIGNED FOR A CAMPAIGN WITH THE THEME "REVOLUTIONARY TACTICS". TO COMMUNICATE THE REVOLUTIONARY THEME, THE LOGO WAS ADAPTED TO CREATE A NEW MARK TO ADD TO THE DESIGN. THE SKATER FROM THE ORIGINAL PORTACOPE LOGO WAS ADDED TO THE SICKLE PORTION OF THE FORMER SOVIET UNION'S HAMMER AND SICKLE SO THE SKATER WAS SHREDDING THE SICKLE.
 

TO SPREAD THE WORD ON PORTACOPE EVENTS WERE HELD THROUGHOUT PORTLAND AND IN OTHER LARGE METROPOLITAN AREAS. THE FINAL POSTER WAS PRINTED FULL COLOR WITH A SPOT TO FILL IN THE DATE AND TIME OF THE NEXT DJ + DEMO EVENT. ADDITIONAL POSTERS WERE DESIGNED WITHOUT THE WHITE BOX TO BE USED FOR GENERAL PROMOTION.
