J-card Development

I wanted to look at further developing the ‘cutting shapes,’ dance map idea. After digitising my initial sketches, I recreated the plan and cleaned up the design. I experimented with simple j-card covers that used the 120-124bpm grid idea with overlaid type. I experimented with various typefaces and colour ways before finding an idea that has potential for development.

Furthering my development, I stuck with similar contrasting colour schemes that are reminiscent of the Acid House genre the Deep Tech scene takes inspiration from. I tried the illustrative elements with a shadow style to communicate a more animated illustrative style that can be seen on some Deep Tech album covers such as Ferrick Dawn’s “Shake it.” The flag design is just an extension of one of my j-card designs, the stylr worked in that format and would be legible blown up to the A1 size of the flag.
