Theory into Practice // Response to Crit feedback

I've decided to rework my final designs after some confusion in today's crit. Clearly my original intentions and the way I intended for my designs to come across were not viewed the way I had hoped. As a response to this, I would have liked to take my designs back to square one and start over. 


However, with the currently time restraints I have decided that I will add additional work to this to outline my focus better, and hope that this helps my work to come across more clearly to my target audience. 


My booklet design and interactive postcards are designed to be given out at Lectures in the level 4 programme to help educate new students of the movements and give them some background information of both modernism and postmodernism.


I have now decided that I will produce a series of posters to accompany these booklet designs and that would promote the lecture programme to give a clearer outline of the differences between the two movements to an audience of people who are unfamiliar with both modernism and postmodernism. 


I will try to focus on presenting this information more clearly, although I understand why people think I should include colour to represent postmodernism my initial intention was that this could distract from the educational factor and it would become more about the colour and vibrancy than the content. 


Because I will not be able to completely reproduce the designs from scratch and add in colour and redesign them I will use postmodern imagery inspired by my target artists 'Tadanori Yokoo', I will them turn this into a black and white colour palette which emphasises my focus on modernism. 


Each poster will argue one case defining the difference between modernism and postmodernism and to help to audience gain more knowledge and therefore benefit more from the lecture programme.
