All the info is here. This is accurate as of Sept 25. Recommend you leave this as late as possible (still meeting print deadline) as things may shift.

I started the design inspired from the festival guide pages and iterating on type and hierarchy:

@marcwalsh Can you confirm if this is the format (A2): https://www.pixartprinting.co.uk/digital-litho-printing/printing-posters/

[marcwalsh]

I’m happy with A2!

Let's also print these at Ravensbourne :) @sabrinang @taisdesouzalessa

This is just because we're having multiple posters and not a high print run.

[taisdesouzalessa]

Thanks @marcwalsh! Do you know which day we will have the printers available to print them?

[taisdesouzalessa]

@sabrinang here are the posters in RedPen: https://redpen.io/p/xz7d85a1b4a215614f

I double checked the info but it would be nice to have a last pass to make sure there are no mistakes. Who is revising the copy?

[sabrinang]

Thanks @taisdesouzalessa R+ on design from me

@edrushka Can you give a content review for these posters? (see redpen: https://redpen.io/p/xz7d85a1b4a215614f)

[edrushka]

These look fabulous to me. R+ CC-ing @KevZawacki for final 👀 on content.

@edrushka @sabrinang Oh my, these are gorgeous! Not one edit from me.

@marcwalsh here is the PDF: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B3b1KWRwjxtoenV0NG1QWmhuekk/view?usp=sharing

@marcwalsh I was told the file was too big so what I did was separate the posters into individual ones - we need 4 copies of each: dd1.pdf dd2.pdf dd3.pdf dd4.pdf dd5.pdf dd6.pdf

I'll send to the print email as well.

The set of speaker series posters were found outside of the walker space and they looked great with the set of wayfinding banners and floor stickers.
