Play It Forward

Play it Forward Music Festival 2025 - Music Festival to support Mental Health

1. The brief...

The brief was inspired by the upsetting news surrounding Ricky Hatton and his openness about mental health, my client came up with the idea to raise awareness and funds for two important mental health charities, SAP;UK and Andy’s Man Club by organising a live music event at a local bar.

2. The idea...

I wanted to create a simplistic design that reflected the 'live music' aspect of the event, with a vintage feel as the bar that was chosen to host had a type of old fashioned vibe. 

3. The process...

At first I tried to create a logo using a fast forward button, for those who don't know what that is, it is two forward facing arrows. However, the design just didn't flow the way I wanted it to. 

4. The result...

I decided to create the logo on a plectrum. symbolising the live music aspect, along with the old fashioned type microphone. I used muted colours to create a vintage feel to it.

5. The tools...
