It was great to get some fresh perspectives on my work as I move into the final iterations. This seemed like a good time to introduce this dialogue; major problems had already been resolved, and fresh set of eyes helped to work out those final bugs that may have otherwise been missed.
The Gregs both voiced there feelings on the general message and use of rhetoric devices as being powerful and effective, and working well in terms of my demographic. They confirmed that both text and image content were working to create two variations of a call to action; one being more urgent and inciting (heritage isn't important), the other being a little more lighthearted but still empowering (vote like you invented it).
more specifically on the "trash" poster, everyone seemed to be responding to the potential of the more constructivist inspired composition. Gentry suggested we view theses posters from a distance, and then noted that there were two levels of read; from a distance the poster seemed to depict the flag alone, drawing someone from my demographic in close to then reveal that it is made of garbage. While they encouraged more exploration towards the constructivist composition, they emphasized that this was an asset to hold on to.
I got some good feedback on the use of red and blue in the collage poster, and also some issues of the contrast between the people and the pot. Greg K also showed me a great photoshop technique for adding color to my black and white collage.
