type poster

From NOW until Monday please think of your poster as a poster, what is the essence of the speech? who is speaking, what is the date (and how can you show that), how can you express the speech into a POSTER. Stop thinking about how the poster is going to become motion. Choose 1, 2 or 3 words or a phrase and start there. Include the speech on the poster but it can be small or edited down to the essence 50 to 100 words. Start striping your poster to a clear idea. Do as many as you can for Monday. EXPLORE.

Right now they are not looking like a poster and they are looking similar. PLEASE consider: space, sCaLE, contrast.. Don't hold back BUT don't do things just becuase they are "cool", always have a reason and it has to go back to the meaning, emotion, feeling... of the speech.

Try for a poster that gives the viewer information in layers, when they are 20 feet away they should see be able to read something, at 10 feet something else, and 1 foot away to be able to read the rest.

I will be around part of the weekend if you want me to take a look. The examples below are just examples not all super great but hopefully they will get you thinking. Try not to be overly influenced by them.
