Assignment 4: Poster

The below is a modification to my chosen poster after consulting my tutor, Ms Siti.

She commented that the poster had an incomplete look as the wordings were all over the place. Therefore, she gave a suggestion to try to box the title of the poster up to give a more "complete" look. Thus, after trying out her suggestion, the poster did looked more "complete". So, this will be my final piece for this assignment! YEAH!!!

Assignment 4: Poster

This is my chosen piece for Assignment 4.

I decided to add a skull that signifies poison on the syringe as shown above. Opinions are that this poster's colour scheme is more attractive and eye-catching. Hope you like it!

Assignment 4: Poster

This is my new attempt of a new colour scheme for this assignment.

I chose this colour scheme as Ms Siti, my tutor gave me some advice to tryout brighter colours for the background. I decided to try a bright colour scheme for my background and the effect was rather good. However, after getting opinions from the people around me, I decided to choose my previous background colour scheme as it was more eye-catching...but I did some additions and modifications to it...I added a skull to signify poison on the syringe...

Assignment 4: Poster

This is my 3rd attempt for this assignment after taking the opinions of everybody around and changing the colour scheme of the background.

This is definitely better than the previous colour scheme of the assignment. The wordings can be clearly seen from afar and the background makes the poster more attractive and eye-catching. However, I believe there are still room for improvement and I decided to try out another colour scheme...so do look forward to it!!!

Assignment 4: Poster

This is my 2nd attempt on the assignment and the one I presented in class.

The colour in thecomputer looks fine but when it is printed out, the background colour darkens and it makes the whole poster rather dull and not attractive. It was unable to capture attention and not catchy enough.

Some recommendations given were to change the background colour and also to change the colour of the words to make it more catchy and appealing.

Assignment 4: Poster

This is my first attempt using colour on Adobe Illustrator.

Opinion given by people were that the cross was rather difficult to identify since it is behind the milk bottle and the syringe, it is difficult to differentiate the colours of the milk in the milk bottle and and the background are about the same.

Thus, I decided to make some changes to it.

Assignment 4: Poster

This is the outline/sketch of the poster.

This assignment was done during the height of the tainted milk scandal of China milk products.

The reason for choosing to do something about the melamine poisoning was due to timeliness as I feel that people need to be aware of what is happening around them and this poster is an excellent form of bringing information about current news to people. This is especially important for parents who have infants and for milk lovers.

Therefore, I decided to convey the idea of tainted milk through a simple poster of the milk in the milk bottle being injected with melamine and after drinking the milk, the baby is poisoned.
