Mixed Media Posters

I took this task as a chance to experiment before the planning of my A2 posters that would make up part of my final outcome. I thought that it would e a good idea to have similarities in the four posters to establish them as a set rather than individual pieces. The media used for each one was instructed to be different so therefore there would have to be a similarity as part f the design on top of the media. 

It took a while to come up with a memorable slogan or detail to link the four together. I thought about the rule of three or rhyming. Pretty quickly I thought of waste and taste combination which linked to my idea of people thinking too much about what the food tastes like rather than the waste that is left over from it. 

I thought of a design that I could adapt into a logo produced by hand and then scanned in to incorporate into a digital design, therefore using multiple medias. I quickly decided that this 'logo' would incorporate the idea of waste or taste.



I found out while researching different actions that one in seven people are going hungry, yet 1/3 of all food is wasted. After knowing this I was keen to work on it. I started the poster making process with collage as this is my preferred media and I was the most confident in starting with this one. First I took a photograph of a bin and then I cut it up. I cut the bin out and then cut out all of the objects to display them in collage on top of the bin.
