Flyer Design: GAOWN Dance Hall Reggae Party



I designed new party flyer. Title logo using "KANJI" the Japanese character from Chinese character. Crocodile illustration print the fluorescence orange like a silk screen print. It is because it printed on natural paper that a background is a natural color. The wave illustration in the mouth of an alligator is the handwriting by pen using Adobe Illustrator. the bubble dot also handwritten. This was quoted from the flyer currently used by the dance hall reggae of the 1990s.



Also I made English version, but client liked the Chinese character. The English version which seems to be lovely is introduced here. Though it was regrettable, the poster of A3 size which I proposed was dismissed on t problem of a client's budget.  This flyer only for postcard.
