Yuck

This is a graphic that is obviously made for the 2012 Olympics in London. I personally do not like it because if this was to be looked at quickly it is very hard to see the 2012 in the background because the font is so crazy. The first time I looked at it I thought they were just random designs. This to me also gives off a graffiti look that reminds me of the ghettos, it does not look professional. They do use warm colors to attract your eye but once people see it they may not get the full idea of it before they turn the page or look away.

I agree with Maddie about the "graffiti" feel this typeface gives off. The bright colors also do not lend themselves to an "olympic" feel. When I think of the olympics, I think of gold, silver, bronze, and deeper colors that may or may not represent countries. I think that with the normal blue, yellow, black, green and red colors that are usually placed in the rings of the olympics, this advertisement would have done a much better job at displaying graphics that coincide with what they are promoting.
