Artwork within Nottingham? A few thoughts...

After playing with several ideas of what to put onto the poster I decided to go back to the beginning and brainstorm what is usually associated with Nottingham and how it could be used in an artistic way.

As this is a music poster I need to keep the design engaging and exciting but still link it with the city of Nottingham, the use of images of things such as the town hall, the trams and Robin Hood are vastly used around the city, could I put a different spin on these ideas to make them fresh so that they would look good on a gig poster?

I have noticed that on other posters and websites for festivals, the designer has often included landmarks from the location of the festival within the artwork, for example the Bearded Theory website, it includes a very colourful image of Catton Hall, where the festival is situated.


Could I make the Town Hall look like a hypothetical venue for live music?
