Final Poster revised

During critique my classmates suggested that I center the cassette tape and enlarge it so that it breaks the inner frame of the design. They liked the monochromatic scheme. They also said to move "presents" over to connect it with Department of Art, and nudge "from the student collection" slightly to the left to center it.

Radical Craft revised

During critique others suggested that the text was too hard to read and should be a bolder/ wider typeface such as Impact or Cooper Black. All the text should be a san serif.


Propaganda Poster revised

During the critique it was suggested that I add more babies to the design to look more like they stretch around Spaceship Earth 75 times. We should also add a key to the design showing how many babies each icon really represented. I should take the mickey mouse hand and Epcot sign, then add more cutouts to the bottom of Spaceship Earth to break up some of the detail there.

Art Nouveau revised

During the critique, the other students mentioned that my color palette didn't match. The mix of bright and subdued colors didn't work together. They also suggested that I either move down the stained glass circle or the title and remove the address. The filter should also be taken off.
