So from all the research and designing process, I have a final outcome for this project.
Link is above to look at my poster
I wanted to create something that linked back to the war and how destructive it was, so that is why I made the colours black, grey and red to show that, and using inspiration from Man Rays ‘Rayograph’ as he calls them, I created this eye image showcasing the dark and haunting atmosphere and how the eye is fading away showing the loss of the people and also in the arts throughout the First World war. Also changing the depth of the lines to create a more 3D effect, I kept some unfinished to show the destruction but also how I placed them was quite playful which links back to the Dada posters and how they laid out there posters, e.g. images on an angle, using the red to a sense of urgency.
If I had to change anything, I would have experimented more with the layout making it more adventurous and interesting but as time goes by I think I will be able to learn and pick up these skills throughout the course.
