Graphics


We were put into groups to come up with a protest slogan. We began by creating a spider diagram to help us come up with a name, based on our chosen topic which was ecology. I thought this topic was quite interesting as it was to do with the environment, so there was a wide range of ideas to come up with. After jotting down various names and ideas, we came up with the name NoZone. This was based on the ozone layer which is a shield around the earth.

Furthermore, we were then given a sheet with small boxes. These had to be filled with a range of designs and ideas for our slogan. Another sheet with bigger boxes were given to us to complete; I preferred this as I could include more ideas inside each box.

After drawing a range of ideas, we began to create our slogan. For this we used A2 paper for each letter. We all helped each other to cut out each letter; this made the task easier and quicker. After completing this, we had to place our slogan in two locations. The first location we presented it was hung from the ceiling. We took various images of it but the writing blended in with the background, so we decided to place a purple board behind it, which made the writing stand out. The second location was in front of the window. I quite liked the composition of how the slogan was placed inside the circular window; But unfortunately the writing didn't stand out very much, as the background was too light.

Out of the two locations we chose the one which hung from the ceiling to present. We printed our image on A4 paper.

Overall I felt that my team worked well together to produce an eye catching slogan, and the location we placed it in was unique.
