dbphotographics.ca & the Edmonton Fringe

This has been quite a Fringe for our photo organization. We did either photos or posters (or both) for 6 separate shows. Man, they could not be more different from each other. From zombie tutorials to a raunchy, black comedy. From burlesque to a country western in a bar. 

This is seriously one of my favourite things to do. 

I think in a past, fictional life, I would have been walking around the offices of Sterling Cooper Draper Price. Although it would have been a lot more difficult without Photoshop.

Check out the work we did for:

Adore Canada: A Burlesque Tour of Canada - BYOV  - The Artery

Death is Bullshit: The Pursuit of Pavement  - Venue 6 - C103

Little Fish - BYOV 35 - The Varscona Theatre

 Princess ConfidentialVenue 11 - PCL Studio in the ATB Financial Arts Barns

 The Rambler - BYOV 17: Red Square Vodka House

Undead or Alive - BYOV 19 - The TACOS Space

Check out the fun stuff we got to do... and MAKE SURE you get a chance to go see one or ALL of the shows listed above. Here is other examples of our design work, 

Happy Fringe! 

 

The Rambler at the Edmonton Fringe

It is that time of year again. The Edmonton International Fringe Festival is under two weeks away. For this year's entry, me and my good friend Mark Stubbings are presenting The Rambler.

This show is a big departure for us as it showcases music specifically written for this show. Lacking song-writing experience ourselves, we cast some of the best Edmonton has to offer in the forms of Andy Northrup, Brian Bergum and Lindsey Walker.

The show runs Aug 16-25 at Red Square Vodka House.

All shows at 7pm. 

Tickets can be purchased in advance here

The Rambler

By Mark Stubbings

The Rivet family has been playing “true” country music for more than a decade. But with music venues closing and their Father’s ability waning, Nate and Kenny Rivet are in a tough spot. Kenny is desperate to find a new “sound”, Nate is busy defending himself from his violent on again off again girlfriend Becky and their old man has had it with the both of them. When a family secret is revealed, Kenny and the old man hit the road in search of a lost love with Nate in pursuit. A story about lost love, arthritis, naked polaroids and the things we don’t know about the people we love. 

Original songs performed by Andy Northrup, Lindsey Walker and Brian Bergum with lyrics by by Mark Stubbings.
