Mock ancillary tasks

This is the poster for our artist - Singnature. We decided to have our artist in our main image not face the camera to seem more defiant or rebellious suggesting that he is not conforming to direct address. Our artist is his own person.

For the time being this is the chosen masthead (logo). The font is called - Nyala (Adobe Photoshop CS5). Several edits have be made to make it look unique including the mixture of the Black and Gray colours to give it that chrome effect. This has been purposely done to show that the artist music is a mixture of genre. Right now however, we believe this colour scheme isn't what we truly want for our artist and are at the moment still coming up with a suitable colour scheme.
