For my remix project, I chose to rework my RSA which is about the reunion of Blink-182. I decided to create a hypothetical tour poster that tried to capture the evolution of the band throughout the years. The audience of my poster is people who may have listened to Blink-182 years ago and want the nostalgia of a band from their past. Since there were so many people who disapproved of the reunion, I wanted to create something for the people who are excited for the next chapter of the band’s career rather than focusing on the problems that were faced in the past. It was important to me to try and include a variety of pictures from the band’s history that helped highlight how they have grown up together and developed musically and personally.
The biggest problem I faced when creating my poster was trying to represent the different ‘eras’ of Blink-182 without making the poster look clunky. Overall it was difficult to add enough detail without writing blocks of text that are boring and don’t catch your eye. I wanted to use what I could from the song itself to help connect the poster to more than just a one-off concert and help establish the band’s growth and ultimate decision to come back together rather than wasting time on arguments from their youth.
My original RSA was about the criticism that followed the release of the single “One More Time” and how the band has strayed from their original sound, so when making this poster I decided to make it about the future of the band and the opportunities that they have rather than focusing on the negativity of their past.
