Evaluation:
The project previous to this was a huge help, especially with the generation of ideas due to the vast amount of visual research I had already gathered. It helped me get a better insight into my subject as well as generate my own opinions and views on my subject matter which ultimately makes portraying a message or designing something a lot easier.
I found the type only poster the easiest to gather ideas for as well as being the most interesting in my mind. Typography is such a huge part of graphic design and I find it fascinating exploring how it can be used to portray various messages and meanings. Type and Image was slightly harder however, but I feel like my concept was a lot better than my execution. Given more time to produce more effective and pleasing visuals would have made the whole poster more successful. Image alone was a lot trickier to generate appropriate ideas for due to the nature of not being able to use type; not being able to use text within an image is something I have never really considered before but makes a huge difference in the way the message has to be dealt with and expressed. I felt for my design that it was definitely more successful when put into context with my other two designs, alone it seemed to lack clarity. Although as a set, thanks to the limited colour scheme and the recurring font throughout my designs, they were very successful and had a simple, clear message.
