Design the promotional merchandising for a music band

A course by Copete Cohete

In this course Copete Rocket-a specialized studio in Design and Illustration that have worked for Nike, Converse or the Coachella Festival-will teach you to design the merchandising of a musical group or local band based on a solid concept that encompasses the essence of the group.

To do this, you will learn to analyze the origin of a band and perform a moodboard to obtain the mother concept; later you will sketch different graphic applications to finish these arts with the help of Photoshop and Illustrator. In addition, you will discover the benefits of a good session of product photography and how to use social networks for promotion.
