Class: Intro to Graphic Design
Project: Get Out The Vote
Goal: Create a poster to inspire voting in the 2020 presidential election.
Inspired by the quote by Max Depree;
"We cannot become what we want by remaining what we are."
Butterflies represent change, metamorphosis, and growth. For my Get Out The Vote Poster for the 2020 presidential election, I integrated the symbolism of a butterfly with a quote by Max Depree that reads; “We cannot become what we want by remaining what we are." The psychedelic style of my poster represents the 60s and 70s which acts as a mirror to what we are experiencing today in terms of the need for togetherness, peace and love. The poster captures the viewer's attention with its vibrant colors, curious design, and layered messages designed with the intention to make type the hero. The themes of change and unity are clearly woven throughout the aesthetic of the poster through both the psychedelic type and color. The poster is lively, passionate, youthful, and successfully drives the message to get out the vote.
