This week I designed a poster for Duns Players production of The Tempest, which will be performed in September at Duns Volunteer Hall. I designed a dramatic image for the poster using all the Adobe Creative Cloud software. I created the waves in Adobe Illustrator. Then I took the design into Photoshop and added the dark shadows, then I added the text in InDesign. My client is very happy with the overall design.
This week I designed a poster for a cabaret night for Duns Players. The design was very simple. I used AI in Photoshop to expand the background of the supplied photo.

This week, I am working on a poster for a show by Duns Players called WAUR! The dramatical show tells the story of war in Berwickshire through the ages. The design has yet to be finalised, but I'm pretty confident, they will like it. The image of the warrior is AI generated which I bought from Adobe Stock. The swords are also from a stock image. The poster will be printed and used online to promote the show in November. QR code is yet to be added to the design.
One of my tasks this week was to design a poster for an event at this years Duns Play Fest. It is a one man show featuring John McEwen (Duns Players) called Y.C.A.G.W.Y.W. (You Can't Always Get What You Want). It is about a dying mans quest to do something for his community that he doesn't even like that much. I used a font that had a bit of punch to it. The client was very happy with the design.

It took a while to draw the illustration in Adobe Illustrator and the photo I had to work with was very low resolution, but my client was pleased with the overall design.
Last week, I designed this poster for A Heart for Duns for the Big Community Lunch on the 7th of May. The event is part of the celebrations for the Kings Coronation. There will be a market and food stalls for people to enjoy in the Market Square in Duns. My client was very pleased with the design.
Two weeks ago, I designed this poster for the Spring Market, which takes place at the Volunteer Hall in Duns on the 26th of April 2023. I quickly came up with a concept for this design and it didn't take too long to sketch out. Once I had done the sketch, I scanned it and traced it in Adobe Illustrator. The text etc was added in Indesign. I supplied the poster for print and web usage. My client was A Heart for Duns and they were very happy with my design.
This week I designed a poster for a local theatrical group called Duns Players. They are putting on a play between 9th to 12th of November, at the Volunteer Hall in Duns. The play is called 'Not About Heroes'. I did two design options for them. The client liked both and wished to use both, but this one is my favourite. I did some initial sketches before I went to draw up my ideas.
I recently designed the 'at a glance' poster for Duns Play Fest. The festival is on from the 29th April to 7th May. There are several events taking place during this time and some events are for children. I am also creating a programme, signs and individual posters for this event.

One of the jobs I did this week, was to design a poster for Duns Play Fest 2021. All of the festival events are online this year, due to the pandemic. The client, Duns Players, wanted a poster that included all of the events, so that people could get a quick overview of what was planned. I used some of the branding that was previously created from last year, but I had to move elements around the page, due to the large amount of text. Overall, I think it looks good.
