30+ Creative and Inspiring Poster Designs

In: web resources

11 Aug 2010

Poster design gives a fantastic canvas for creativity. Like web designs, posters offer great scope for creativity and innovative graphic design. Posters are often created for DJs, events, nightclubs and other interesting subjects that lend themselves well to creative design work. This article is aimed to provide you with some great examples of inspiring poster design and creative graphic design in general.

In addition to the designs below, and focusing on the topic of creativity, we thought we’d share a piece of writing from young Sydney designer (Sasha Zubac) on what creativity means to him:

Creativity killed the Design Star:

“Creativity, the pulsating orb of light that resides in the back of a designer’s mind feeding them with vision, innovation and contagious ideas. It puts reins on a wildly running imagination, giving it direction and production; making thought reality.
The degree of thought and process put into a design is what really sets it apart from the rest of the crowd. You could say that a designer’s purpose is to ignite and set off its audiences’ imaginations into a wild running frenzy.
Although, as we all know some ideas come at the click of one’s fingers, while others play a desperate game of hide and seek in the back of our minds.
Inspiration can work like the electrodes of a defibrillator, shocking and bringing back to life a once dying idea. The flow of creation can bring an evolution of thought and imagination, superseding anything concocted beforehand.”/em>

If that didn’t get your creative juices flowing, then the 39 creative poster designs below should switch you on!

Dear Sir/Madam,

I am writing to inquire about graphic design employment opportunities that may be available at *INSERT COMPANY NAME HERE*. I am moving to England from Lithuania on July 9th, and I would like to find employment with your company. I know that *INSERT COMPANY NAME HERE* has *INSERT POSITIVE COMPANY TRAITS HERE*, and I would like to be part of such an *INSERT ADJECTIVE HERE* organization.

I graduated from Vilnius Business College with a bachelor in translation and interpretation in English/Lithuanian, but I believe that I also possess great talent to do artwork. I am most interested in vector art and logo design. I work with Adobe Illustrator CS2/CS3, Adobe Photoshop CS2/CS3 and Corel Suite X3. I am innovative and creative, and I take initiative to get the job done. I believe that I am a good judge of aesthetic impact, but I remain entirely open and adaptable to the specifications and style preferences of my clients.

I hope my attached CV with examples of my work will be of interest to you, and if you become aware of any positions for which I may apply, I would sincerely appreciate a call or e-mail message.

Thank you for your time.

Sincerely,
(Name Surname)
*EMAIL ADDRESS*

I think it is definitely related to your field. Perhaps you'll learn a few things you didn't know about on this end of the business. It helps to be knowledgeable in all areas of your chosen profession. Besides, you may learn of new opening or hear more being somewhere that deals with that type of clientele. You're definitely on the right track!
