This past weekend I was lucky enough to be invited to set up a booth at the Bandwagon poster show + sale in Savannah, GA, coinciding with the Savannah Record Fair. I got to meet some of the best poster designers out there, and as a beginner poster designer myself, received an incredibly valuable education from artists like Mark McDevitt and Robert Lee of Methane Studios, Andy Bonner of Tone Ink and Nate Duval.
Everyone was incredibly friendly and helpful, especially considering I was the new guy among the veterans. So big thanks go out to Charlie Trefry for planning and executing an amazing event that went off without a hitch, to all the other poster artists who attended for being so accommodating and to all the SCAD students and fans of art who showed up to give their support and hard-earned money. It was a great event and a great time for all involved, see you again next time!
To all of you who weren't able to make it, be sure to check out the work of Methane, Tone Ink, Nate Duval, Two Arms Inc., Us & Them, John Vogl, Wierhouse, The Half and Half, Yee-Haw Industries, Lure Design, Guy Burwell, Cannonball Press and Eyenoise. And for god's sake, show up next time! Here are a few photos so you can see what you missed...
It was a blast! I got to create my dream team of poster designers and get them all in one amazing city. SCAD and BFG were incredible hosts.
