Rhythm Hierachy

When looking for music flyers, I came across this Bonnaroo music festival one immediately. It popped off the screen due to its use of bright colors and contrast. I love how they made the most famous artists in different colors like blue, pink, and yellow etc. and made the not so known ones in all white. The black background makes it easy for the type to jumps off and makes the artists, location and such easily legible. Putting the date of the festival and the location at the top allows the viewer to know right away when and where the festival takes place. I have seen some music festival flyers that have that information towards the bottom and it can get confusing. This is an excellent flyer and a good example of visual hierarchy. The use of a bold typeface for the big artists and a medium one for the smaller bands does not disrupt the flow, if anything it adds to it.
