Today was our introduction towards this assignment. Firstly we were briefed in the pit and then in studio we looked at different poster and the Ihi and Whi components of each poster and how it made us feel. We looked at the fundamental design principles and in my group I found that the bloodbath stood out to me the most. It looked at the juxtaposition of clean and sterile lives that protected western societies live versus Palestine war and terror stricken lives.
Next we played dictionary which I found a fun and interesting way to engage with the use of simple and effective symbolism and messengers. My partner was quite successful in this game and her simplicity made it easy for me to guess. It was interesting to see how animate objects such as jeans were much easier to convey compared to the word freedom. We will then use one image for one of our posters tonight.
