I thought of creating some kind of typographic poster that inspired or motivation first year students next year could be quite interesting. Using just type with a quote or motivational speech could be quite inspiring and to help comfort/support students next year that hey! everything will be okay. I found personally that if I was having any struggles in university, an email to my tutors helped me rest my mind as they explain and give you feedback which help your own work and ideas. Sometime's it does get tough and you think I can't do this anymore so I think an inspiration poster would be beneficial to remind students no matter how far behind you are or how bad it gets that we are all human at the end of the day and you can only try your best.
I've really became fond of this poster as I first seen it in one of my flatmates rooms, in the movie this speech is made by one of the characters who basically says it how it is. That life is hard, your going to get shit on, your going to struggle, your going to want to give up but the thing to keep in mind is nothing is easy, life is hard but its all part of LIVING. Keep yourself motivated, go outside more, spend time with your friends and your family, do something that makes you happy.
This is another poster that caught my eye for the movie Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas which is a hilarious funny movie. The poster itself is very in your face with typography, this I think is beneficial as it draws attention and interest as theres so much going on you want to know what its message is. However I think the chosen typeface and scale of everything is too much, the hierarchy does not flow so your eyes are darting around the page trying to read different things.
This poster caught my eye with the minimal typography and black background. I like how half of the message is hidden as it adds interest to the poster making you want to know what its about, plus the fact its not obvious as to what it is so it grabs your attention.
