In today's class we looked at the use of typography within posters. A lot of the class was spent drawing up thumbnails of existing ideas, although playing around with the typographical elements, and how this can further emphasize your concept, and how the text can be just as strong as the imagery itself. I used the two existing ideas I had made digitally in my sketched thumbnails for this exercise. These thumbnails have been drawn inside of my physical workbook. We also spent some time inside of the presentation studio looking at existing examples, and how they have used text within their designs. Some of these were extremely interesting, and looking at some of these will definitely help me develop my own ideas and concepts.
In terms of the posters I created digitally the other day, we were told at the start of class that we would be having a big class critique tomorrow, so to bring our best poster at tomorrow printed out at A3. I will present my poster which features a bulldog and a kiwi, used to emphasize how we need to ditch the Union Jack and 'set ourselves free'. The poster I will present uses Pathos as a rhetoric, as it looks to appeal to the emotions of the viewer.
