Dry Prong is a nearby town with a population of 427. I was asked to make a banner for their Christmas parade and given a layout from the original banner. When advertising an event, three major points should be considered: What? When? Where? For my version, I chose Christmas Script and Jiggy Roman, both from Signfonts.com. The script is a no-brainer, and Jiggy Roman gives the festive feel. Both fonts are outlined in gold. The original banner used a casual font for the date and time (which seemed to clash with the ornamental decorative DeVinne font on the main copy). I chose Frutiger 65, which is extremely legible. The date was cut in removable vinyl so that it could be changed each year. The cartoon helps draw attention and adds an element of light heartedness. I dropped Village of which seemed irrelevant.
