Zirca (a mega dance club) and Rebel (a boutique hip-hop and R&B club) celebrated their 3rd Anniversary over a 2-day extravanganza of their hottest resident nights on the 25th and 26th of November by pushing partying to a tongue-in-cheek hoax of a political agenda. Inspired by none other than the ubiquitous Shepard Fairey’s OBEY Propaganda series, the illustration follows the common themes of radical communist style posters, incorporating ingredients such as ornamental frame designs and flourishes, heraldry and banners, stars and guilloche elements.

I had originally suggested superfluous liners like BLIND SHUFFLING CAN BE HAZARDOUS, MAKE PARTYING YOUR RELIGION and DISOBEDIENCE ON THE DANCEFLOOR. All of which were (sadly) rejected for more politcally-correct liners like HOME OF THE RESIDENTS, MAKE PARTYING YOUR CALLING and POWER TO THE CLUBBERS. Oh wellz! These liners can be seen tracing the circular edge of the illustration.

The collaterals included a flyer design (which includes the month’s club schedule and unfolds to a mini-poster at the back), our regular monthly ad at the back of JUICE magazine (November issue of 2011), electronic direct mailers, outdoor posters for the Anniversary itself as well as November’s club schedule/listings. I also designed the lightbox which was installed at the facade of the club entrance as well as a 2.5m by 2.5m photowall (to serve as a backdrop for trigger-happy partygoers. We also had giveaways such as t-shirts and totebags.
