This is an informative design project in which I worked with the world-famous David Caneso, of the Caneso family fame.
Our goal was to design a poster that informed the public of something. Our focus, for this project, was to do something related to government missile spending and how it effects us taxpayers.
We display 5 of the most common missiles as well as their specs, then outline their costs in several different fashions. Notice how little an individual pays for the missiles over his/her lifetime. It's less than you probably thought. So, since it's such a tiny amount, what else could it go for that would be more productive than missiles? These things are outlined on the right-hand side of the design.
In terms of details, this poster is 66" (5 feet, 6 inches) wide, 30" tall. Yes, it's freaking humungous, but we needed it to be large to have effect.
This is not a design set out to tell people how evil the government is. If you read, that you're mistaken. Rather, this is meant to simply question the spending habits of the administration. David and I don't particularly like weaponry, and think it's a waste of money. Don't comment on this letting me know how I've unsheathed the evils of the government, you hipster dufus.
The Government will always miss use funs for their agendas. As a graphic artist it is are duty I believe to show people the facts and let them do what ever they want with them. Hopefully the piece will impact or motivate a few to do something about and event such as this. As for the piece it self it's well thought out I like the juxtaposition of the missiles to what we could gain if we used the funs correctly. Color is great, illustration of the missiles is just right and every thing else feels right then again I like to see it printed. Let me know if you print it out and post it up I would more than happy to look at it. I go to American Intercontinental University , its near Otis and I would be my pleasure to check out your work live . Since I'm graduating soon I have a bit more time on my hands you would think the opposite. Now its time to look for a job!! I'm so exited I just love what I do for a living. Not many people can say that.
very nicely done! informative which is always good in design and aesthetically pleasing. the illustrations compliment the message very well without taking all the attention away from it. great job....//
