Hi folks,

Erik speaking, wishing you all a Happy Friday!

Part of my job here at RiffTrax is that of Art Director — which is mostly about making sure that the visual identity of the company, including the website, DVD box art, product and live show posters, Preview clip thumbnails, etc., stays "on brand," for lack of a better term.

Jason Martin, our graphic designer who actually creates these, loves coming up with fake posters every now and then — whether to test that I'm paying attention, or purely to scratch his own creative itch.

These, of course, are immediately rejected.Usually, these rejected posters aren't seen by anyone outside of the company — but for you, loyal DripTraxians, I've collected a handful here. (I did almost post the "Breaking Sinbad" poster on the product page for Son of Sinbad; that one's just too good not to share).

Which one's your favorite?

BONUS! Rejected fake trivia slides!

I was digging through the archives, and found a couple of rejected "fake trivia" slides from live events past, which I don't think have been seen anywhere else. These get rejected for various reasons not by me, but by the folks at Fathom Events - and it usually involves naming a specific person... or candy.

Enjoy!
