We're hosting an Oktoberfest at a local cafe that I help manage, the Mockingbird Cafe. We're calling it Moktoberfest.

I'm looking for a simple but festive flyer. The inspiration is the flyers that you see around town for concerts and events. Elements that might work include a keg, beer stein, bottle cap, beer label, german figures. Nothing too cheesy, I'd like to err on the side of clean and simple. Perhaps just make the bird in our logo festive, by adding a crown or a german twist.

I've attached our logo for inclusion, and referenced graphics below that reflect the style I'm looking for.

Here's the copy...

I like the Shiner brand and the way to use a vintage/weathered look in their ads...

Also, I like the M and German typeface on this image...

I'd also like to put a small crown on the bird in the Mockingbird logo, sort of like this...

Please let me know if you have any questions.

Thank you!

I've uploaded an eps of the black/white logo. I don't have an eps of the original.

The size will be tabloid size (11x17).

Thanks!

Looks good. Love the brick and the overall layout.

Any chance we can work in more colors from the logo, instead of the reds/yellows. I'm guessing we can swap those photos out for one's that I provide too?

Maybe not make all of the text the old style. I like how they give the M emphasis. Maybe make our mockingbird stand on top of a blue old english M...

Hello Jeff,
Thank you for your feedback. Here's a change for the poster after your guidelines.
The photos can be swappeed with any photo you want to appear on the poster. I was about to ask you if you have some specific photos that you might want me to place instead of those placed now.

Thank you very much Jeff,
Virgil.

Virgil,
The latest revision looks great!
If we could do these two edits...

-Remove the 2 faces from the background, I think it looks awesome without
-Switch out the photos for these...

Admins: please note Virgil as the chosen designer.

One more edit, can we switch the last two photos on the far right. Put the one of the brewery first, and the white building on the end.

Virgil, can I get the files ASAP. I need to have this printed this afternoon.

If you could send a pdf file, along with the other standard file types, I'd appreciate it!

Thanks for your great work!

Jeff
