POSTERS

One of the things that struck me at FantasyCon was the power of posters so I contacted Nigel to have one designed.

I want one that shows the map of the DM but we both agreed that it needed a pretty strong tag line. Nigel suggested:

ONCE YOU GET INTO IT THERE'S NO COMING BACK
ONCE YOU GET INTO IT THERE'S NO WAY BACK
GETTING INTO IT IS THE EASY PART...
THE ATTRACTION IS INESCAPABLE
ANYONE CAN GET INTO THE DEMI-MONDE...
A CAPTIVATING READ THAT WON'T LET GO.
ONCE YOU'RE IN IT'S GRIP YOU'LL NEVER BE FREE

I reposted with:

THE LURE IS INESCAPABLE
HAVE YOU THE COURAGE TO ENTER THE DEMI-MONDE?
YOU'LL NEVER BE OUTED IN THE DEMI-MONDE
YOU'RE WELCOME TO STAY FOREVER.
IN/OUT
DON'T BOTHER TO BUY A RETURN TICKET
A LESSON FROM HISTORY...BE AFRAID

The end result is that we're gonna do two posters. One will be based on a new idea of Nigel's: a picture of Heydrich a la Kitchener with the caption 'The Demi-Monde wants You!' and a second showing a map of the DM pinned to the door of the Prancing Princess under an In and Out sign, only the Out sign is smashed.

Nigel's mocking them up now.
