Poster of the Week: Friday Night's Peelander-Z and Anamanaguchi Show at The Loft

peelanderzposter.jpg
Seems like, far too often, show posters are straightforward -- an image, some words detailing the show information, and, well, that's pretty much it. So it's nice to see a designer thinking outside of the (video game) box for a change.

In this case, though, it's actually two designers: Brent Ozaeta and Taro-Kun. And it's not hard to see their inspiration, either. Combining Anamanaguchi's use of Nintendo sounds in its chiptune punk and Peelander-Z's homeland of Japan, this poster serves as a sort of screen-grab from an anime-filled video game. There's some familiar faces in there -- among the Megaman and Picachu -- but that's not the thing that puts this poster over the top. Rather, that'd be the designers' smart use of the bottom portion of the screen/poster to sneak in the pertinent details.

A fun design, for sure.

Think your poster is better? Want to see one of your designs get honored next week? Drop us an email with an image promoting an upcoming show right here. Oh, and, when possible, be sure to do so at least a week in advance of the show. Thanks!
