After some experimentation and research I have managed to design a set of posters which express the subject of subconscious advertisements for my essay.
Below are my final designs
My first design is definitely my favourite, I am really happy with how my experimentation of colour has worked out. I really wanted to achieve something bold with this these designs and I think I have. My idea of using the image of a barcode and then turning that into something symbolic seems to have worked in my favour. For this design I really wanted to express the subject of my essay, when talking about advertising and subliminal advertising, the idea of confusion seems to work well. The feedback i received for this design was quite positive. I got a lot of nice comments for my colour and choice of image use.
Fot my second design I relied heavily on my research to express the idea of individuality and conformity. For this piece I wanted to express the meaning of today's society and what it seems to be like living in a consumerist world. The use of the symbolic bar code to represent individual people, and the use of colour to make the conformity subject and obvious one.
For my final design, again sticking with a similar subject but using the ability of image manipulation to design something that expresses the idea that in some way, in our consumerist world we are trapped by the symbol of the bar code and what it means to individual people. placing importance on materialistic items.
