The school and the Historical Society planned an event for June that would bring lots of families out to learn a bit about the history of their town. I was asked to do some of the graphics design work for the poster, brochure, and tickets. From the start, I wanted to stick with the old-fashioned look since the whole event was taking place on Old Main Street.
For those of you interested in technical details, the cloud effect was basically a 'render clouds' scaled down, the pictures are feathered to blend together, and the border keeps everything nice and defined. The content was basically just rearranged for the web poster, and black and whited for the tickets and brochure.
The event features Vintage "Base Ball", Revolutionary War Dragoon units (read: horses), and lots of other historically themed events. It ought to be good.
