Project 4: D.I.Y - Brief

Brief

The brief for this project is to 'Do It Yourself', which means that we can create own project.

For mine i wanted to explore all the different rules on layout of posters from the 1950's onwards. To see how many different rules and techniques they used.

From this i will research posters from some iconic people from this era, and dissect the posters to see if there are any guidelines i can establish.

From this research i hope to make experiments from my findings and hopefully establish or adopt techniques into my own practise.
