Barcamp Omaha is a unique conference, or un-conference as they call it, in that the speakers sign up in the morning to address the audience who is also speaking. In this poster those who are leading are also creating in a way that we are all connected.

Project Description
The poster was designed for Barcamp Omaha which is an "un-conference" held every year in Omaha, Nebraska. It is unique because the speakers are the audience members and the audience members are the speakers. You can sign up in the morning to talk about something you're passionate about. We have 3 categories that we use as a guide for the talks: creative, entrepreneur, and technology. When concepting ideas for the poster, I thought, "What if Barcamp was held in a factory around the industrial revolution?" Instead of just talking about what their passionate about, everyone would actually create these things. The poster is an illustrated portrayal of what I think a historical Barcamp would look like.Production Lesson(s)
Six colors for one poster this size is quite a lot.
