After pitching the idea to Jay, we thought it would be cost effective to screen-print the posters onto a bulky newsprint as this is cheap material and would be a good stock to print onto, as normal newsprint would start to crinkle once ink is applied.
The most difficult process is to fit all the text needed to fit inside the head figure and also be easy enough for the viewer to read.
I found then working on parts first was easier to work with the just starting at the top.
Making use of the negative space has given me more room to work with and given the piece an interesting piece to look at.
Development...development...food...development...sleep...
Ok its sunday... Put down the pencil.
Once roughly mapping out the text, this is now acts as a guide and the photo gives me the perspective to make the type look as though it has actually been applied to a head.
The poster will be split into two bits One being portrait figure and the other more key information on the location.
this is simply placed under the final art worked portrait and seems to work well with each other.
Few more tweaks can hurt.
The flyer Needed to be plain and simple. I was going to use the art-worked figure on the poster, on the flyer, but this didn't seem to be as affective. The created typeface seemed to work quite well and thought I may just create a simple type-based flyer.
People love the word 'free' so I made sure that was in the public's face face.
We need to provide the public a map, which needs to be simple and not complicated. I think land-marking places students seemed to know best would aid the location of Victoria Road....
...Hyde Park Pub.
Also keeping in mind which way people faced as they would look at the map. I thought just keep this always facing north, just to be safe.
I feel these work well and would be duplex printed.
