Once I read this article on freelancing and the author designed websites. Her article was about finding clients and one of her tactics was to send mock-ups to potential clients giving them a rebrand or face lift on their website.

I thought this was mighty inventive- thought I’d give it a try. I was cruising around Eventhi.io and felt inspired to remix one cover photo, and design other one that was missing from an event page- then sent them as a gift to the event producers.

Let’s see if they open the email 🤣

I still enjoyed creating these online event covers. I particularly enjoy the research process. Learning about the events, the hosts and or performers or guest. The mission behind the event.

Creating space for entertainment or education is something to be celebrated. These acts build community. Uniting people.

For this special event, we brought the essence of 1970s GoGo girls to life, all while celebrating the bold spirit of drag. Inspired by the iconic style of Beyoncé's Carter Cowboy flyer, we aimed to capture a graphic, cut-out feel that resonates with the modern aesthetic yet feels like a nostalgic throwback to a groovy era.

Our initial design leaned more towards realistic visuals of a drag show, but after discussing with Flambowence, we shifted gears towards a more graphic and playful style. The client wanted to include a "newspaper" feel with trendy cut-outs and specific verbiage from our original concept. The colorful backgrounds, bold fonts, and psychedelic patterns reflect this vision.

🌟 Feedback from Flambowence: "THIS IS AMAZING!! Super fun and retro, and communicated it all so well."

Creating this flyer was a thrilling journey of bold choices and creative exploration. I'm so glad it brought the client's vision to life and added an extra sparkle to this fabulous event! 🌈👠
