About Me:
I'm a hipster/graphic designer/coffee connoisseur named James.
About the project:
So, Justice is in all reality currently doing a tour - but it's nothing like my fictitious "Stress tour." If you havne't already gathered, I've drawn a lot of inspiration for the project from Justice's music video: Stress. I think it's an interesting and philosophical way that the musical duo has chosen to represent itself via hooliganism, destruction, and basically getting away with a lot of crime. It was at that moment that I thought to myself - "That would be a bad ass tour..."
There's a few motifs carried out through the video that I chose to focus on: the breaking of glass, the focus on the Justice Cross, and the sort of turning on you (as a viewer). I decided to carry that same energy into the tour's campaign poster - or at least the initial sketches.
Research/Studies:
I spent a good amount of time studying other successful posters, as well as doing a few of my own studies, simply to explore composition and strengthen my relationship with it.






Initial Sketches:
And finally - I put it all my findings together, and I think we're starting to get somewehre.



Anddd that's where I am currently. Thoughts? Suggestions?

Update: 02.16.13
Revisited one of my sketches with some compositional improvements. Explored some different spatial relationships, and pushed for more ambiguous figure ground relationship via broken glass. Thoughts?
