Case Study
Client: BMF Media Group
My Role(s): Designer

This is another of the “One Night in” events that I’ve been designing for BMF Media Group and their friend, the Queen of All Media. You can take a look at my One Night in Toronto post or One Night in London post for any more info about the design scheme in general.
For “Chicago” in the logo, I took a famous sign in Chicago and sort of flipped it around. It was bertical, then vectorized it with a sort of hand-drawn look. In the background, the image of sunset over Chicago is a great image by Kevin Dooley. I vectorized an image of the Chicago skyline looking south from North Ave Beach by Monika Thorpe. The Perez logo and the Perez Presents head were supplied from the client. Jenn from BMF suggested we add a Chigaco Perez’s ballcap, which was a great detail.
I particularly love the step-and-repeat on this one. The skyline and sunset effect look great as a backdrop for the logos. It appears someone else may also think so.
I also made evites, a web rsvp, bar decals, bar menus, door tags, vertical sponsor banners, a stage banner, sponsor banners and a sign for the help desk.
