Initial Development
The idea behind these series of posters is to show people that everyone has different personalities and different motivations that drive them; they have different ways of thinking, different hobbies and different behavior. But it doesn’t matter who you are or what characterization category you fall under (Young and Rubicans theory)
You should be accepted and we all want to be accepted for whom we are and what we like to do and wear.
I started by just experimenting with the different categories and then when I had done a few I started to experiment with layouts to get a better idea of how I want them to look. I did a number of them based around the aspirer poster and I found that this was the best. I did a detailed vector image of this suit to show status, but actually the outline gives a better impact and a good interesting image that will make people want to look.
I wanted to try a vector approach after we did an image for it when doing a production lesson on after effects. I think it works really well and I plan to do a few more with this style to see if this could lead to the final piece for me.
After figuring out the style I wanted the posters in and the fonts I wanted to use I did a few using the different categories, I started off liking the first few but then I thought the designs weren’t fitting with what I wanted them to do. I wanted them to give off a clear message and although I think the posters are showing what they should and are relevant to the categories, I don’t think that for someone who doesn’t know the categories this way of working gives the best effect.
