UGD505 Studio Brief 2 - Development - Screen Printing
Part of my aims for my campaign was to produce six A4 screen prints which each have their own issue to expose. I cut this down to four in the end as I found that these four ended up worked as set and included the messages of them, therefore with time - I decided to stick with the four. All the stocks are bright, bold colours, and also used short, snappy slogans - informed from my research to quickly grab peoples attention with and relating to the neon colours which you relate with raves.
The posters are somewhat ambiguous which I believe is a good thing. This leaves the posters open to interpretation but also leaves a question, which will prompt audiences to follow the hashtag to find more information - then leading them to the digital platform of the campaign. These posters will be features in the zine but would also be distributed as posters to hang up around cities promoting the website/twitter while also raising awareness by sending out a serious message. Being that there a too many men running the booking agents, sexual harassment exists in the music industry, Mash up has no time for bullshit and it open to all artists with one purpose only - to make people dance, and finally, nightclubs are in decline (Clubsterben translates to Death Club which was a slogan in Berlin for the same issue) but nightlife matters.
As these posters needed to be short and sweet to catch audiences attention, I didn't want to overbear the posters with a lot of design, rather minimal and simple instead. When screen printing I ran into some difficulties with the exposures but this worked to my advantage as some I got a nice texture to them, which I much prefer. They look like they have been screen printing which is a much nicer quality to posters.
