Final Design #2

Poster Wall

Refinement of finals complete and ready for printing!

 

 

Parody poster refinement

YEAH RIGHT.

Switching out the black for another colour option

No more black.

Experimenting with colours

Colour experimenting.

Final week. Strongest concept - refinement

Refining my strongest poster idea.

Colours too dark - not enough distinction between black and blue/grey colour.  Too subtle.

This colour option seems better - gender neutral.  Reminds me of tigers though? Maybe explore different colour options.

Too 1 dimensional?  Explore shadows etc.. 2D and 3D ideas?

Some aspects of this work.. think it takes focus away from the question mark and makes too much going on. Looks a bit too messy.

Had to brighten colour as previous orange turned out a 'diarrhea' colour when printed.. not what I'm after! 

Same again with this one.. this version is even worse I think.

Different approach to royalty idea

Playing with idea of getting rejected due to lack of education from public school..

1st attempt:

 

 
Changed colour of stamp - don't know what I was thinking with a blue stamp!?

Zoomed in and lightened image as it was too dark:

More poster concepts playing on the idea that Princess Kate went to private school.. look where that got her etc.

Playing with the use of type to create different 'voices'

More poster concept ideas

 

 

 

Humourous school quote "5 out of 4 people don't understand fractions" concepts

Ideas based on the quote 5 out of 4 people don't understand fractions..

Found some school slogans - useful taglines

Using type to create images - playing on crime/brighter futures at Private school

These concepts stemmed from the Apostrophe Gun poster by Matthias Ernstberger.

Possible poster concepts - rough ideas - Public school drug use

Quick mock ups on photoshop to get ideas rolling - public school drug use.

The idea of the apple bongs is to incorporate them into a 'A is for apple' concept - using the apple as a way to smoke drugs also known as an apple bong

 

Possibly using this as a reference to draw my own version from.. or turn into a vector image to base poster on...  

 Finding ways to incorporate childhood charaters/memories/toys and turn them into bad influences. 

 Quick mock up of an idea I had about the common school moto 'hand in hand we learn' and turning that into a negative somehow.  eg. hands in handcuffs etc..

 Another quick mock up of an initial idea.. using joints as type.. unsure where to go from here.. lots of ideas but nothing jumping out at me for an exciting concept.

 Another quick mock up of an idea.. not very powerful though.. needs work.. too boring and not very appealing. Needs to be more creative. Not happy with this one.

 Just an image I found which I might use later on..

An idea I put together, stemmed from the marijuana public school poster above.. I think it has potential but might explore other avenues.. Will come back to this one and re work it if I get stuck for ideas.
