LOLLAPALOOZA ICON SET
DYLAN D’LIMA, EUGENIA SANTAELLA JESSICA GOMEZ, KHETHIWE GUMEDE LORENZO ALIBRANDI, NEHA BHAMBURDEKAR
"LOLLA" We decided to make our icons for the music festival Lollapalooza. This festival was started in 1991 for a few years then was revived again in 2003. The name derives from the meaning "an extraordinary or unusual thing, person, or event; an exceptional example or instance." Because of this, we felt like this was a perfect festival to create unique icons for.
"LOLLA" We came up with a list of some useful icons as well as some symbols we thought would go great with Lolla's festival feel. Some of the ones we thought of were: Headphones, Loudspeakers, Campsite, Seating area, Illegal Substances, Merchandise, Eyes, Hats, Women silhouette (sexy), Stars, Cans of beer But at the end we came up with...

RESEARCH WE SPENT A LOT OF TIME GOING THROUGH PAST LOLLAPALOOZA FESTIVAL POSTERS. WE SAW A THEME OF GRUNGY, OUT OF THE ORDINARY, SPACE, AND UNIQUE COMBINATIONS THAT HAD A FANTASY THEME TO IT. WE USED OUR RESEARCH TO COME UP WITH OUR IDEAS AND INSPIRATION FOR OUR UNIQUE ICONS. WE WANTED TO DO SOMETHING DIFFERENT YET STILL INCORPORATE THE "LOLLA" FEEL THEY HAVE CARRIED OUT THROUGHOUT THE YEARS.
INSPIRATION
GALAXY
ROCK/GRUNGY
SAILOR JERRY
Most of Lollapalooza's posters have had a space theme. We definitely wanted to keep this aspect but incorporate a psychadelic aspect to it.
Because this festival was started by a member of rock band Jane's Addiction, we wanted to keep the grunge rock style and mix it with the galaxy theme.
As for the icons itself, not just the style, we thought of doing the "Sailor Jerry" style to emphasize the tough and rock aspect of the festival.
