Some work from my Graphic Design course...

Haven't posted anything on here for yonks, so thought I may as well !

These are a few pages from a project I did before the summer, based on George Orwell quotes.











Pretty generic really, but I'm still learning

Not something about big brother! But other than that, pretty cool!

Like the big brother one Could easily be an anti-propoganda piece in the book 1984.

Yohji, could you do me a 1280x800 version of the flying human beings one

Interesting, but as you say generic....and lacks any polished/produced feel. I think your use of black could have been better arranged, and a lot of this would have been considerably darker in feel if the text had been white on a black background.

I'd suggest having a look at your fonts as well....for something like orwell quotes I'd have used a distressed typewriter font, although something more contemporary such as the one you've used could also make a statement, with a little work on character spacing and placement.

I really like the crushed 'forev-er' in the first picture. Conveys a real sense of brutality and violence, but I'd have had the 'stamping' in capitals, and a lot closer to the bottom section.

And the flying speechmarks are a great touch.

IMO they're all good except the big brother one, I would make the George Orwell name stands out a bit more though
