The Roots and Friends Jam

PROJECT OVERVIEW

Live Nation partnered with Bud Light to sponsor the 3rd annual The Roots & Friends Jam event. My colleagues and I brought life to the event space with designed posters featuring Questlove and Tariq, colored lighting and decorations. A common pain point for music shows is fans will show up to the set early, with nothing to do except wait around for the show to begin. This problem was solved by creating an experience similar to an art gallery, giving concert goers an incentive to stick around and purchase drinks.

I aimed to create three unique styles for the set of posters to mimic the diverse sounds from The Roots. Each style was inspired by trendy designs seen in print ads and other media from specific decades.
