Assignment 4

came up with a few ideas on what i wanted to do:

• save the trees
• save the environment
• kill pests
• save the ozone
• save ink

decided to choose 2 of them and work on sketches:



2 chosen themes were "Save The Environment" and "Save Ink".

for "Save the Environment", the idea is that the atmosphere is polluted and the plants and animals were dying. problem with this poster will probably because it will be cluttered up with quite a bit of things and it's hard to find the focal point of the poster.

"Save Ink" is a bit of a cheeky idea that i had to attract people's attention. my initial idea was to attract people's attention by leaving a big white space with only a small, but visible logo, so much that it'll arouse people's attention and look at it.

since there's going to be very little printing, i decided to just go with "Save Ink", because it literally saves ink.

here's the final product:


Learning Journal:

Making a good poster doesn’t mean that we have to put in a lot of colors, details or flashy pictures to attract attention. It’s important to know what kind of attention we are looking for and how do we go about controlling them. For my poster, i learnt that less is more, saving ink might not be such a practical thing to have, but the point of my poster was to arouse the curiosity of people and it achieved it’s purpose.
