Week 7- Poster Project



For my poster project I decided to create a poster for the Canadian Breast Cancer Foundation.  This year they are hosting a silent auction and tea for fashionable women.  I created these images on Illustrator, and decided to make it look like the teapot was pouring a dress into the teacup to get across the fashion and tea aspects of the event.  I made the poster pink because it is a color automatically associated with breast cancer, and it attracts the eye to the poster because it is so bright.  The audience of my poster is obviously women, so I tried to make something that would appeal to that audience.  I choose to use a script typeface for part of my headline because I thought it was both feminine and correlated with the idea of a high tea.  I used Bodoni for the rest of the poster to subtly reinforce the fashion-y aspects of the event.
