Study Task 2 - 5 examples of Graphic Design delivering different messages:


Make art not war: this piece of design is created to communicate the message of the promotion of peace saying make art not war. I feel that the reason for this being so effective is how the piece is designed in the style of war propaganda designs  



This is another design from the Aides group, this is communicating the message of the dangers of unprotected sex. The design is so effective due to how the woman's partner is replaced by a spider this shows that although her partner is not really a spider, he or she is still a danger to her.


This poster is a piece of world war two propaganda that is communicating a message of strength, its purpose was to recruit women to help in the factories helping to mass produce supplies for the troops. 
it shows the image of a woman rolling up her sleeves that is an instant message of hard work and the flexing arm is a instant communication of power, combined with the typographic elements at the top "we can do it" this makes the design personal and aimed at all the women out there.


This image was created by shepard fairy to raise the awareness of what fossil fuels are doing to the environment he conveys this by the exaggeration of key elements making something that is not really visible in everyday life stand out as a very powerful piece of design. This poster communicates a message that green energy is the way forward.


This is a piece of russian constructivist propaganda it was created by a famous constructivist called Alexander Rodchenko i feel that this poster conveys the main message of power. I feel this is directly aimed at the general public so there for power to these people the reason i make this dicision is down  to the fact the figure is dressed in work clothes and the feeling of power is conveyed by the facial expressions the figure has and the arms in the air almost celebrating.


  



Graphic design is made for a purpose this is to communicate a message to the viewer using text and image, some of the messages above: keep moral high, unprotected sex is a danger, Make art not war.
all of these messages can be communicated through image type or colour.
