Taking on board the comments from the last critique I developed my poster ideas. The main problem I had to think about was colour and what it represented.
I looked into colours that represents certain things I was trying to put across.
Olive Green is the traditional colour of peace.
Aqua is associated with healing and protection
Light blue is associated with health, healing, tranquility and understanding.
I decided to keep my image of the girl as I thought it worked well but I changed the words to say 'Everyone Deserves A Home' so it is not implying that the image is a child but just a women and that it is more broader.
The first of my poster ideas was to create it completely out of black to create a hight impact feel.
My second Idea was to use the colours of the Syrian flag
And my final idea was to keep the layered technique and use blues as in my research I found they were calm colours that resembled healing, protection and understanding.
I made a presentation for the critique and asked some final questions
- Which is your favourite design?
- Do you have any other suggestions?
- Shall I produce this in multiple sizes?
A majority of the feedback was that people liked the 2nd and 3rd poster but mostly the third. They liked the idea of seeing the girl behind the head dress and that it focus's the eye. There was also comments that the third looked the most friendly and welcoming. I got a few suggestions and many people said that the print would work at many different sizes however large would be the most impactful.
After this critique I knew I wanted to go ahead and produce my blue design.
