Updates!
After sorting through the hundreds of photos, we picked about 100. And by we, Brashani did. They look awesome. Mind you, picking just 100 was a huge task.
Within that 100, we need to pick out about 25 that will be used for various advertising and marketing materials. We plan on creating posters, business cards, media kits and the like that will bring about much anticipated buzz and chatty chatty. Brashani and Collete look fantastic! I really can't stress that enough. The photos came out great, but they are not complete. Until we get them touched up, we won't be able to publish them just yet! Boo! I know. Very sad. They will be up soon! Promise!
Speaking of media kits, I have been putting together various viral marketing items that will be used for everything that we can put out. I designed two different flyers that were in style of the old playbills from the 20s. When looking at a TON of these, I realized how quick the point they were. They pretty much summed up everything and enticed the reader. I was trying to capture the language and I noticed that they were rather witty at the time. Granted, it was hard to decipher the lingo and all that, but I pretty much took a lot of the phrases verbatim and kind of tweaked them with some of my own made-up one-liners. In addition, I got some lines from the musical itself and threw them towards the top.
The orangey one is the playbill/advertisement of the night of Velma's arrest and the other is Roxie's and Velma's show. If you are NOT familiar with the musical or the movie, they end up teaming up, despite their differences and put on a show at the very end. The movie has been out for several years. If you haven't seen it, GET IT! Its awesome. Yes, yes. I'm aware that I may have spoiled the show, but seriously. The show has been out for more than 20 years. And I had to post these, because they're awesome.
Anywho, here they are. When they are printed, I plan on stressing them a bit and make them look a little more authentic. I have to say, the easiest part was typing everything up. The pain was putting those two freaking tommy guns to spice them up a little. They came out pretty good, I think. The media kits are still in development, but they will definitely include these two flyers. I might end up putting websites on the back or something so they aren't just stand alone or confusing.
Stay tuned for more updates!
