I have created posters that were based on a play we have seen that highlights some of the local heroes that had impact and which we might have forgotten about i.e. Constance Lytton.

In addition, it was important to link those ideologies together meaning that in order to create an engaging campaign this was done as we have come up with an idea to create a one website for which gives demographic a choice of choosing a Constance Lytton website or Jane Warton website. There is a clear distinction between each website because on Lady Constance website the language that she uses is more formal and the content you would see on the webpage would be what you expect from the lady whereas Jane Warton website is less formal, more simple and gives her a chance to speak out without a fear of being punished. Furthermore, in order to create the campaign more interactive we have applied digital ideologies for example by using QR codes in the poster this means that the poster is more interactive and engaging with the demographic rather than having a passive demographic which is just looking at the poster. Furthermore, it also gives a demographic next action point from which they can go to rather than applying information. They can research information in their own time.  For the poster I have decided on two different versions where one was inspired by the Barack’s Obama Hope campaign poster which contains instead of “Hope” it includes “Votes for Women”. One of the issues I have encountered is that the in order to create the effect I had to have a good picture quality which was impossible to find because Constance was living during 19th Century meaning that the cameras weren't as developed ultimately meaning that the final effect wasn't as impressive as it I was hoping for it to be.


This was important to use because it was a political propaganda poster meaning that it relates to the suffragettes content where following group was fighting with the government in order to gain rights. Second ideology for the poster was to include a suffragette flag which contains colours of purple, white and green. This was achieved by having a flag as the background making up the whole poster this was important because for the people that might know the flag as soon as they look at the poster it could subconscious for them to link the flag and might have an general idea of what the poster might be about. Furthermore, in the middle in order to highlight the main issue which women have faced at the time was lack of freedom/free speech I have included a microphone which instead of a handle has cross this could be related to suffragettes as they were known to be religious and strong beliefs.



Furthermore, later on I was assigned to create some posters that would possibly more likely represent the ideologies of the hashtag I have come up with which was #speak out. I have created poster that relate to Arab Springs which is more relevant in the current period rather than fighting for votes for women this is because we already have established voting rights and equal rights in UK. Whereas third world countries which are not as developed are still fighting for these rights to be widely available.  For this my idea was to also include a flag in the background which would make up the poster and I have chosen United Arab Emirates as the flag and some of the symbols which these areas are known for and what protesters are fighting for i.e. Burkha.

At first we have made a campaign about Constance Lytton and how she would promote what she was promoting in 1900s, being a suffragette. The poster includes a colour palette of a suffragette flag meaning that following group will gather intertextual link. Furthermore, there are many versions of the poster that represent similar ideologies i.e. Fist and microphone these are crucial because in 1900s women were not able to speak freely. In addition, it was important to include hashtag in our campaign to make it more popular quicker and make it viral this is because majority of campaigns do have such hashtags First poster I have made was based around the inspiration of Hope poster of Barack Obama and later on Hillary Clinton which parodied Obama I have tried to make this version of a poster this is because it is political propaganda that relates to the topic of Constance Lytton as she was fighting with the government in order to gain the rights. However during ...

Later, on we have decided to create a campaign about Arab Springs and to promote women's rights that women don't have in such places suggesting that we are being multicultural and open minded when it comes to other opinions. Furthermore, from the poster above you can tell that there have been multiple versions of the poster this is because I was experimenting what was working and what was not. As well as it is evident that the background makes up a flag of United Arab Emirates suggesting that it will subconsciously target people from these areas. This is important because it grabs their attention straight away. Furthermore, to highlight local area I have included text in Arabic this is so people from local area that might not speak English would be able to understand it as well it makes them feel more unique and special as the poster is targeted towards them because it is written in their native "home" language. As well as, I have received fee...
