The Cosmic Nod


Feb 17, 2020

Sequence 2 continues with the amazing Kevin Tong
Kevin is one of the most sought after and well known illustrators out there. He does everything from gig posters for bands, super detailed experimental infographics to boutique posters for films and TV series as well as cover art for novels and comics.
 
If you are a Circa fan, you may have come across Kevin's work while watching the show New Girl as the poster he did for the LA date of our 2010 tour makes an appearance in just about every episode of the show. Kevin even tells an amazing (and hilarious) story about that very poster.
 
He tells us all about his journey from traditional 9-5 design gig to becoming the self made king of poster illustration that he's become, his early use of psychedelics, how he mixes fine art technique with traditional illustration, the WTF moment of getting asked by Netflix & The Jim Henson Company to design a poster for the new Dark Crystal series and more.
