MONDAY
Today we had to show in class our four posters but without he text. This was interesting and made me realise that a couple of mine were definately very relient on the text and the image needed to be a bit more interesting.
It also made me rethink which text was successful and which wasn’t. I think with a more compelling image “She has more to worry about than grades” could be very interesting.
I started doing some more research into the womens libberation movement and also the suffreget movement. I really like how the posters designed at that time looked. Obviously they were created by hand since this was before computers were around. It really made me think about how I could make somehting physically and not have everything be digital.
I decided to make soemhting based off of the colours of the womens libberation movement, green, purple and white/gold. I also started making a line carving version of my text to test out.
THURSDAY
Today we had our interim presentation. It was interesting to see all the other classes work. I was surprised by which one of my posters got the most ticks. Im still not sure which poster I would like to move foward with.
Id like to try and make an actually empowering poster and see what it looks like. Im not sure if there could be a way to have the same words on both posters but have them mean slightly differrent things when combined with the image.
