Project Brief//
Poster design demands immediacy, graphic impact, and clarity. In this project students explore the relationships between type, found images and concepts. One of the goals of this project is to demonstrate how visual decision-making changes when compositions are done by hand. The assignment is to create a poster for the film 'Everything is a Remix' by Kirby Ferguson. The theme of remix is carried throughout the project. The students begin by watching the film. They then create analog collages which are then shared with their classmates and ‘remixed’. The final stage is digital, in this part of the project the students work individually to make a design that incorporates their visual concepts, expresses the theme of the film, and acts as a promotional poster for the film.
