Dance MUSIC FESTIVAL Poster Design In Adobe Illustrator



If you’ve ever been captivated by the beauty of topographic textures—the intricate lines and patterns that create depth and movement—and wondered how to incorporate that stunning aesthetic into your poster designs, you’re in the right place!

Topographic textures are not just visually striking; they add an engaging layer that can transform your posters from ordinary to extraordinary. Whether you’re promoting an event, showcasing a product, these textures will give your designs a fresh and organic look.

In this video, we will be looking at creating posters for a fictional dance music festival where we will be using typography, grid and graphic texture as part of the poster design.

So let’s get into it!
