Blog: The Promotions Of Doom

< previous

Next month I'm going to be doing Data and Doctor Doom in Leicester (Saturday 7 February, tickets HIGHLY AVAILABLE), which means it's time to start cranking up the old Promotional Machine again.

So far that means I have done a new version of the POSTER, shown below. As you can see, this is pretty much exactly the same as all the other posters what I've done for this show, just with different details in. I was INSPIRED to do this by the posters for PUB BANDS that I used to see around Leicester back in the early 90s, where the acts had run off LOADS of posters and just written the dates in in PEN. Back then it cost approx a million quid to get posters done, so that was Quite Sensible, and despite the fact that these days it is significantly less costly, even for glossy colour ones, it is a state on mind that I have not been able to shift!



This has been printed in both poster and leaflet form and sent to the marvellous Mr B Ennis, who is PROMOTING the show, which means that I must now turn my attention to other items, which as per is going to include various VIDEOS and also Banging On About It On Social Media. I've also got an idea that there's something in the fact that I'm doing a show about a Misunderstood Tyrant (V von Doom) in the vistor centre for another Misunderstood Tyrant (King Richard III) that I could do something with, but I'm as yet not sure what!

The main point of all this, to be honest, is to apologise in advance for the amount of SHOW SPAMMING that will be coming to my SOCIALS over the next few weeks. I will do my best to make it interesting in some way, honest!
