For my Awareness poster, I was planning on doing a poster for factory farming, something that I know a bit more about than cyber bullying. However, I couldn't get my factory farming poser to work. I wanted it to be relatively authentic. However I neither have a chicken, poorly treated or well treated, nor do I have a cage the right size the photoshop said chicken into. So, in order to use my own images which I know I could accurately use to depict what I wanted to, I chose Cyber Bullying. Below are two versions of my finished poster. I couldn't decide if I wanted the backlighting to be on the words or the figure, so I'm hoping to get your opinions, However I am leaning toward the first poster with the figure highlighted.
I know a lot of people, friends and people whom my friends know that have been cyber bullied. I've also dealt with minor cyber bullying in my past. I know that cyber bullying can hurt just as bad as physical bullying and that's what I was trying to convey in my poster by having the figure in a aggressive stance holding a bat; which could definitely do some damage to someone. I wanted the font to look like one a chat program might use, basically, to resemble the internet.
If I were to go back to this poster, I might add a "Stop Cyber Bullying" into the bottom right corner. When I was making this, however, I couldn't think of a slogan or phrase that I thought was good enough. Maybe if this poster would be made for a website, that's where I would include the website's address.
