Poster / Installation Mock up (Final Outcome)

To suspend the bag from the wall I initially had someone holding it but the hand in the way didn't look at all natural as I wanted it to look like it was all falling, I then sewed string to the strap, attaching all the strings to a pin in the wall. As it's thin white string it's not easily visible, I plan to further get rid of these during the editing process. I also used white string to suspend the objects, sewing them into the inside of the bag.

Initially I had the bag upside down so it looked like the hanging objects were falling out of it but in the photos it just wasn't clear visually that this was the case the bag was just upside down for no reason so you can see the printed font less. I adjusted this so the bag looked more like it was falling, as were the objects falling out of the bag. I feel the latter images are a much better composition and enable legibility of the text.

I'm debating wether to remove the spots from the wall, I feel they tie in with the spray painted aesthetic of graffiti so will probably leave them.

Editing / Print

I initially thought I'd just print out the poster with some minor lighting changes but upon playing around with inverting and posterizing effects I found the visuals even more fitting as neon tones emerged, reminiscent of lasers and lighting effects you'd see 'at rave'.

I edited out the pin holding up the bag and string initially, then found the heavily edited version to be mine and my peers feedback:

"So Jump-Up".

People furthermore seemed to find the attention to detail amusing like the scorpion pattern on the empty drugs packet (which is referenced in my bars). 

The neon flashed surrounding the objects furthermore suggest motion, which makes it look even more like the bag is falling and makes me think of someone 'skanking so hard' their 'shotters' pouch' goes flying, with their rave essentials flying out on the dancefloor.

I printed this out onto A3 gloss; it had to be gloss as all Jump Up music event posters are so, it was necessary to fit in with the tacky aesthetic to some degree as the simple composition of the poster itself is very minimal in comparison to the hectic lineup posters advertising nights such as Next Hype; challenging the aesthetic, inspired by the Gunfingers candle, contrasting concepts.
