Poster designs thus far

Open publication - Free publishing - More design

These are the poster designs that i have put together so far, its helped me realise what processes i have been doing, what needs to be done and how they are working together as a whole. I think its really going to be down to the presentation and packaging to pull them all together. They were never meant to look identical, i think its just my obsession with constancy that is making them look a little different and disjointed, but again that was the idea. 

There are certain ones that you can only visualise once they are processed but they will be.

I wanted to get my lazer cut and embossed posters done over reading week but they have decided to build a room around the laser cutter so i couldn't get near it.. ANNOYING.

So i am just getting all the designs finished and then i can get them done next week.

Poster 3

I have taken the latest idea and tried to lay it out so it has maximum impact and shape, I'm still not assure about it i think it looks too unclear, and there isn't enough impact with the type. I like the idea of placing the phrase separately so you can see why it works. I still think this idea needs a lot of work and I'm not really happy with it yet. 

Triangle Poster

I started putting together ideas for my third poster, "For me typography is a triangular relationship between design idea, typographic elements and printing technique". I have really struggled with this idea, i know what i want to create but I'm struggling to actually create it so theres a lot of playing around happening. 

This is the last idea i have come up with, after getting some advice from people

of the course they told me it would be easier to work with one word instead of

working with the whole saying, as it was getting very difficult to fit it all in. I am not

too sure about this, it defiantly works a lot better than the previous designs but it's

still not creating the image i want. 

I attempted to fit the whole phrase inside the triangle i had created using illustrator, and using the 

really angled text, but this has ended up being really unclear. Its quite frustrating.

After failing at trying to get the original text i had chosen into the 

triangle i have chosen to look at using different fonts, i did some more research and found some

that were more applicable. again though I'm not sure whether they work properly. I think

they are all a little too strong, and don't really reflect the look I'm going for.

Poster 3

Theseare my first attempts at trying to create type within a triangular shape. The idea being taking the content of the phrase and creating the idea around it. I know what i want to create but I'm really struggling to get the idea in a visual way. 

I think the image looks way too complicated and compressed, so you can't actually read it clearly. I like the choice of type face because of the angles and the it gives definition within the structure but a lot of the detail is getting lost and it just looks like a jumble of words, which isn't what i want. 

I think it needs to be simplified if its going to work in a clear and functional way, its completely lost its readability and legibility.
