SB2 - Poster Finals

Anarchy - Posters final - 

 The posters carry the strong print visuals on top of simple straight forward designs, taking influences from a number of elements of research which has been looked at over the project. The posters were realised through experimenting and physically writing ideas, which lead to using monoprint as part of the production process which was to add an element of the old styles and the old methods of design which visualised the anarchist movement. This can be clearly seen in the rough aesthetic which is seen on the black aspects of the page as it sits on the yellow stock, this combination makes for strong visuals and it is clear to see why this style was used for Colin Wards Anarchy, which is what was wanted in designing these posters, a visual strength through anarchist and print ideas.

The poster resonates mid 21st century modernist styles, inspired not only by Rufus Segar's cover designs but also non-anarchist designers Max Huber and Michael Engelmann. Individual aspects have been considered and are relevant, for example the stock, colour choices and print methods are inspired by 'Anarchy' magazine, while the designs take on a lose playful yet simple styles seen in modernism during the 50's and 60's.
This poster series works both physically as guerilla distributed means, posted onto buildings and wall space, as well as being digital, this can be realised through making gifs, banners and an online identity which would be the letter form images compiled together.
