The type of posters during that era were obvious, and it was quite eye catching. Despite the fact that many people were illiterate during that time, the posters were designed to send direct and clear information (Huang, 2013). Which means even people who cannot read may be able to understand its content. Pictures within the posters tend to be vivid and noticeable while bringing out sentimental values (in Mao’s way); while words within the posters lead the public’s mind on a route of Maoism. In addition, some posters won’t even have words on them, where some might just have quotes from Mao for direct projections. Overall, diverse types of propaganda posters were built for various specific purposes but with one ultimate goal of Maoism, nevertheless, such posters emerged unfavorable
For one of my projects I did the movie/game review, but with a twist. I wanted to be able to tell the reader about the movie and video game I picked, but I knew writing it in on a piece of paper wasn’t going to be enough. I wanted the reader to be able to create a visual in their mind on what I was trying to describe. That is why I created two poster boards on James and the Giant Peach and Fallout 4. The reason I choose those two where because one; James and the Giant Peach is a classic and what better way to use a classic that makes
Imagery uses color as well that is eye catching to anybody. For instance, in a poster with a large British solider, this shows that they are powerful and should be looked up to. Below the solider are hardworking citizens which do work and this helps aid to the solider to grow. Additionally, there is another poster that states "Woman of Britain" and has a picture of a factory worker standing right under war planes. It is stating that they have the power to aid with the war by working. Overall, imagery is a necessary part of posters and propaganda to persuade an audience.
This poster looks the way it does because it seems to glorify war with many hot colors (red, orange and yellow) and being an exceptional warrior. The people in the background seem to be in pain and dying. There also appear to be rather large explosions in the background. It shows a courageous and powerful woman wearing an armor and having two swords on her both hands. This thing is indicating an incredible woman who have many monsters behind her, and she walks through them. It means that she killed the monsters, overcame her challenges, and destroyed the war to protect the world and maintain the piece. The poster also shows that the movie with a supper woman will be coming soon because the poster has ‘COMING SOON’ is bold and and capital with
Finally, we decided to focus on the design and style of the posters, as well as some of the rhetoric appeals used, rather than talking about the topic itself. Thus, we concluded that our main point would be what we considered to be our strongest aspect of the posters, which we determined was the balance between pathos and logos in the posters. By choosing two posters to display data and facts, and two to display emotion-evoking images and messages, we determined that we provided enough variety of information so that an individual that is either interested in the facts of this topic or that is interested in the morality of this topic could be persuaded to pursue more information on this topic, or even heed our call for advocacy. Although we were met with some issues concerning time and a difference in both topic and design choices, we completed the poster series in a manner we were quite satisfied
The lighting of the picture is very natural and comforting. The artist painted the setting to be a bright sunny day. The execution of a person should be a sad,
The theme I have selected for my book is “...Despite one’s best effort, humanity will not always return the favor. Life is not a balanced scale; life is a dance of give and take that can leave one person on top of the world and another buried six feet under.” This theme can be linked to my poster’s slogan: “It is possible to be chained by the stories we have yet to tell,” because the chains that bound the Lacks family were the cause of the unjustness they were subjected to. The image I selected represents my slogan and the characters in The Immortal Life of Henrietta Lacks because they felt locked up, left to rot as they wondered what had happened to their mother. The chains are the lies, the secrets, and the manipulations that the Lacks family
My poster is about buying Liberty bonds and to have people stopping and thinking of the men suffering in the war. The slogan shows some emotion by saying Help destroy the jeopardy of the seas… so
The poster “No Blood for Oil” has a big history that is the war, the unique content, and the idea is interesting. The war between Iraq and Kuwait started in 1990, there are two beliefs why the war begins: the first one is because of “defending Kuwait’s freedom, and second defending oil resources” ("The Graphic Imperative.") The war changed the climate of counties that were close to Kuwait, because of the burning oil that made a black smoke around Kuwait. The black snow that was in Kuwait, because of the burned oil had created a hard life for people and animals in that period of time. Steven Lyons created his poster to show what was happening in Kuwait. The poster shows an armed man that was ready to fight. He has everything to go to the war, and fight for the country. Also, the poster has many colors in it, but it is a bit gloomy. The shapes and colors draw attention to the poster and the problems that are behind
I picked this image because I like how it has a rustic look too it kind of reminds me of the western movies. For the title I used a slab-serif called Rosewood Std as the font because it has the western feel, which works with the feel of the image. For the informational part I used sans-serif called Helvetica. I tried doing what Saltz mentioned when it comes to a dark or light background to use dark or white for the font so it’s legible to read. I, also like what Adam mentioned as well about negative space, which is the image itself and I didn’t want to over power the scenery with too much font. I wanted that negative space to be the eye-catching star for this poster. I once again picked some colors from the image for the color of my font
The students have just found out that one of Patricia Polacco’s books has been chosen to be made into a movie. Each student is responsible for making a Coming Attraction Poster that will be hung in all the local movie theaters. Each student will have already chosen and read the book. The poster (12” x 18” construction paper) should include title/author/illustrator. They are to list all the important characters to the story. Students can also assign an actor/friend to portray the different characters. An example of this would be Mr. Falker played by Tom Hanks. Students will then illustrate one scene from the book, and finally write a short paragraph explaining
For my propaganda poster, I chose the slogan “Spark The Resistance” because the poster was meant to say, light dynamites and start a resistance. The image I created is a dynamite lit up with sparks with a British resistance symbol in the background. There are six blue parachutes falling down from the top of the poster; I selected this image because I wanted the encourage people to plant the dynamites and resist the conquerors. The image helps represent the slogan by sparking the dynamites can start the resistance. In addition, I chose to use the colors blue, red, white, and orange; they help develop the message because blue, white, and white represent the resistance of the British powers. Also, orange depicts the sparks of the dynamite. In
The artist uses art appropriation to use an image that the audience already knows. Since the audience is already familiar with parts of the image it becomes sort of a parody. The audience can look at the piece and form their own judgements based on what they think about these events. For example a person who was not a fan of Obama during his political run would already have their views of Obama when they look at the hope poster. They may not see hope as the correct word for him. So the audience is able to put their opinions with the image along with looking at the new
One interesting thing that I noted is that each of these shots has an american flag in the frame. We are then introduced to the main character and soon after we realize that this is a film about the Boston Bombings of 2013. The first half of the trailer does something that no movie poster can do. The pacing gradually picks up speed and gets to the point of multiple fast cuts with loud ambient noise and music, until everything cuts out to black and silent. It gets the audience very focused because you know that something is going to happen. The music chosen for this piece is extremely impactful. It is a slower rendition of “America the Beautiful” played on a string instrument of some kind. It creates this somber yet patriotic feel to the trailer and resembles the Boston bombings perfectly in the sense that it was a terrible day in our history, yet it made us stronger and more unified. This is something special that a simple poster cannot accomplish. The pacing is something that stands out along with the music. This movie isn’t an action thriller but it leaves you on the edge of your seat because of how well the pacing and music line up. It begins slow leaving the viewer at ease but then takes the audience on a roller coaster until it hits the climax (bomb exploding) and the goes back to a slow patriotic mood and calms you down until the end. This is all accomplished from just
Throughout history, symbols have had an overwhelming presence among citizens. The French Revolution had many symbols that represented power. Did the events leading up to the storming of the Bastille persuade the French citizens to believe that it was a symbol of power? There are many reasons why the French citizens would believe the Bastille to be a symbol of power. It was a very overwhelming stone structure, which stood robust, surrounded by small villages along with farmland. The architecture and placement of this fortress gave itself a reputation of strength and impregnation. It stood by itself, being the most intimidating structure of its time.
