Gig Posters

Sorry for the delay. My home internet is down for the next 2 weeks.

Positives: The use of the paper airplanes and symmetry of the overall design.

Negatives: Font needs to be different. Bottom needs to be justified.

Positives: It draws the viewer in because they want to be able to tell what the background image is.

Negatives: Brighten the image. Not very definable. 

FINAL

My computer for some reason will not upload my final picture for the final project. I'm going to try again tomorrow. My internet is acting fickle and keeps disconnecting so I'm guessing thats why it won't upload.

Sorry for an inconvenience.

The one with text in it is just basically an informative poster. It is really well done and has a beautiful layout and sense of space. I like how the feather is the only thing white in the poster and stands out as the central focus. The one without text reminds me of what we've been doing, it looks like an abstract poster because of the use of lines and the way it kind of makes a diamond around the central focus.

I really liked the Scrubs one because its one of the few I got right away. Being an avid fan of the show, I knew that the circles were the colors of the scrubs people wore in the show and you could even relate the colors to certain main characters. They simplified the show down to the basics you need to understand the show. Because over all its a comedy show about the staff at a hospital.

The original  idea for my project was from seeing the tasmanian  tiger going extinct which led me to how the wolf almost went extinct a few years back from over-hunting. So I wanted to make an informative graph that would maybe let people see what they were doing is wrong and try to help conserve the wolf because is it an important part of our environment.

I wanted to do something similar to a graph but make it more colorful. I liked the angle on this one which gives it a interesting edge.

I like the vibrance of this image and how it pops out at you. The background even has some interesting point drawing the viewers eye in. The repetition of color would also be helpful in relating items within the graph.

Abstract (revised)

Isotype Project

Peace Sign

The first thing I think of is the 70's and all the crazy psychedelic colors. Its a iconic symbol that represents, to our generation, the relaxed ideals of the 'hippies' and getting along. No war and violence, basically. So the first thing that comes to mind is a rainbow of colors and the fashion statement its started, which is far from its original purpose.

So then I found this, basically a rainbowed flag with the original peace sign on it and just once word "peace" which describes the main purpose of this symbol. But from here I thought about not really a peace sign, but rainbows. And I always associate rainbows with unicorns, because that's something little girls always imagine, their dream world of unicorns and jumping over rainbows with them; or at least that was my childhood. Though now that I'm older, all I can think of is a horrible saying of unicorns farting rainbows and a game called Robot Unicorn Attack which is strangely addicting.
