Another handbill for ya!



I put "meet in front of the New Daisy" on this one, because I'm not sure people will know what we mean by the Old Daisy. I'll change it if you guys don't like it.

And I called the event "Memphis Zombie Massacre." I don't know why, but it just felt more right than "walk" and even "crawl" when I was laying it out.

See any problems? Hate it to bits? Let me know before I go have it printed up.

So far, the 320 I had printed last week are gone, gone, gone.

Big flyers to come.

Handbills for this week's art trolley tour



Last night we talked about going ahead and getting some publicity materials downtown in time for the art tour crowd to see so they have some sort of idea of what's going to be happening next month.

This design is for a quarter-page black and white handbill. Should be super cheap to print up and cut, and they will be the perfect size to just lie on counters for people to pick up. Or, if the mood ever strikes, to be slid under windshield wipers.

I'll be coming up with other handbill designs, but this is something I just wanted to push out to have done in time.

If there are no objections to the wording or anything, I'll plan to have them printed up some time tomorrow and I'll hand them off to Sharon and whoever else might be able to make this Friday's art tour (I have to work, naturally).

Any idea how many copies we'd need?

More e-flyers, if you want 'em

downtown

5.25.07

If you want to use the largest versions of these flyers (which I recommend but were too wide to fit on this here blog body-text area), click them and it'll take you to the Flickr page, where you can select "all size" and get the originals.

Now we can start planning the photo flyers and whatnot, which should be lots of fun.

I'm also going to work on some small buttons and banners to put on web sites and blogs and MySpace pages and whatnot.

Nashville Zombie Walk

I was reading on their myspace page and group about what they are planning to do and what time, etc. They are having a registration period before the walk - apparently from 5-6 from what I could gather from the posts on the myspace group. I'm not certain the purpose except to gauge how many zombies are participating. Does this seem like something we ought to do? I'm thinking not.

I have to say, even in the early stages of planning, we seem a LOT more organized than the Nashville group - they aren't even looking into getting a permit or anything like that.

So - basically, it's on Saturday, April 7th from about 5-6 or so onwards at Riverfront Park in downtown Nashville.

Basically - my point is to say, that I believe that Nashville is NOT the group we want to follow. Chattanooga and others seem much better.

Memphis Zombies website

Planning for the future of the website - what kinds of things will need to be included?

We mentioned the following:
  • Route Map
  • Rules of Conduct
  • Why We are Doing This
  • Links (I would like a much larger and better organized collection of links than what is present now.)
I am sure there is other stuff I am missing. Just want thoughts, suggestions, critiques...
