Marketing My Band


One of the most important aspects of creating a band is promoting them through marketing. Otherwise, how are people going to see and get into the band?

Easily the most inexpensive form of marketing in our modern era is through social media, and so, I updated each of Toxic City's social media sites in order to promote the band. These links were also shared on my website, to promote authenticity.

Website Merch


For the 'Shop' page on my website, I have been busy creating Toxic City's very own merchandise! To do this, I found images from Google and Flickr, which you can see here:













From here, I inserted each picture into Photoshop, and set about editing each one to make it an official piece of Toxic City merchandise. Using my graphics tablet, I drew on every picture. Here are the finished results:













I used iconography from the album cover and also from the music video, as well as colour schemes from my website and digipak to ensure that they all were identifiable as Toxic City's band merchandise.

GIFs on my Website


In order to increase the interactivity of my band website, I've created some GIFs. 


This eye blinking I drew and animated myself, therefore I'm particularly proud of it. I drew some of these in my comic book, so I animated this GIF in order to unify the two products.



These pixel versions of the character from the comic book I created using the site Piskel , which is free and allows you to create your own pixel sprites!




These GIFs I created for the 'About' page in order to increase the level of mysteriousness surrounding Toxic City. They were created on GIPHY , which is free, and allows you to create GIFs from any pictures or videos you may have.
