Poster Project


So I had a major technical problem with this project haha. For some reason Photoshop would not allow me to enter text! I had to open this in illustrator and just do my text there, hope it doesn't hurt my grade. Anywhoo, the reasoning behind my poster is basically to help prevent child pornography. I chose to go the route of the evidence/polaroid taken of the child in bath from behind the closed door to show that no where is safe. You really don't know when or where a crime against your child may occur. Even the innocent pics a parent may take of their child at bath time could get in the wrong hands at some point. I feel my design is effective because it shows the snap shot as a crime. It doesn't have to have a ton of text explaining itself, it just shows the hard facts.

  1. although a bit to graphical. i think the message is a real and concerning one. i think that maybe the body could have been more concealed. the identity of the individual and the age clearly drives the message to the viewer of what you are trying to present here. i lice the tape across the key hole that is very good

  2. The message was clear and a great message. I liked the text itself, but had to concentrate a bit to see what was behind the police tape, but once realizing a peep hole, I thought what a great picture for this message. I could not see what was in that peep hole (as you mentioned a child taking a bath), but thought the actual text message and the fact that there was a peep hole definitely got the message across. Good job!

  4. Great message but maybe the keyhole could have been a slight bigger to show just what we are veiwing.

  5. I get it, I think it would be better if the key hole image was much larger and the message was written once. It hard to see what is going on. What do you think.

  6. I wrote the message 4 times. Stop Child Pornography. Very much to the point I think, no? As for the keyhole being bigger, I have gotten loads of negative talk about people being able to see the baby's butt with it as is. I can only imagine the lynching if the image was more visible.
