Slide 1 – Camp Bestival flyer:
The purpose of this flyer is to draw in a
crowd, and persuade them without saying any words to come to there festival.
This
Flyer shows all of the acts and bands that would be playing there and also
tells you the date: this festival was hosted on the 26th to the 29th
of July 2012.
The Colour in itself is quite eye catching,
a vibrant pink instantly stands out and the texts Colour clashes with the
background of the flyer which also makes them stand out from the rest of it.
All of the acts are displayed on banners to
make it seem like a celebration that they’re there. Also having the names of
the acts written in black also makes them stand out from the banners colours of
blue, purple and yellow.
The design style of the flyer is very
childish and wants to bring a positive image to kids and adults tat the
festival will be fun.
Slide 2 – iPod lovers:
This graphic design piece has one solid
meaning to it and it says it as soon as you take one look at it. Love. The
whole image is based around love but being linked with technology. The
earphones are representing music and music has be known for the bringing
together of people, and since the earphones have been shaped to be like a
heart, it shows that music has brought them closer.
The design is simplistic and easy to
understand the image is very plain.
The colours also speak to the audience,
telling them that its very innocent and youthful – this is linked in again with
the technical side. Youths are known for being obsessed with technology. The
orange background also represents creativeness, which sums up the image in one.
Slide 3 – London 2012 archery:
This Image represents the London 2012
Olympic games with the archery target. . The black inner circle and the arrow
that’s in the center are the 0 and the 1 in 2012. The images colours are showing
professionalism, exciting and positive images.
The design of this piece is very simple but
has a nice play around with the 2012 lettering on the actual design.
The shadows that emanate from the bottom of
the stands make it look like a 3D image when in fact it is simply a 2D image;
this is clever and will entice people.
The fact that the 1 from the 2012 is in the
center shows that The 2012 Olympics will be amazing just like somebody scoring
10 in archery.
Slide 4 – TGBMF:
The flyer for the great British music
festival has three main colours, which are white (cream) red and black. The red
is to show patriotism and brutishness, which is what the music festival (im
presuming) was about.
The design is very vintage and old timey
but to those who experienced the festival this would have been very modern at
the time it was created.
The festival took place on the 31st
of December 1975 – this date shows it was designed to be a new years festival.
All of the acts are in a big serif font to
make some of them stand out from the rest of the flyer.
Slide 5 – Xbox Beard guy:
This piece of graphic design work was made
to show what can become of you if you play too much video games.
The design of the piece is simple and
follows many of the deign styles of the previous pieces.
The contrasting colours show that its
bright and can easily be identified. The Xbox controller represents the eyes of
the man, and the Kinect sensor is the mouth, this is a take on the saying “too
much TV will give you square eyes” whilst this one says “too much Xbox and
you’ll become the Xbox.” And gamers that play for too long and don’t do
anything else they do tend to grow massive beards and hair grows too long.
The piece is simple but says a lot without
actually having any text to read.
