Overall i really like this persuasive poster. the colors go well together with the bright grainy red and the bold font it grabs the readers attention. It is well balanced and the negative spacing is well proportion. The Africa in the middle effectively tells the readers who you would be helping and how to do it. This poster is very well organized and everything fits where its supposed to. Good job elissa!

I actually think this is one of the better designs out of the class. Your message is very straight forward and conveyed in a way that is clear and understandable. Its also not hard to see what you trying to do in the poster since the text used is very simular to the (RED) text they use in there posters. You did a good job manageing your space and my eyes flowed very well on this and didnt wander off. overall 9/10 and a really good job.

Your design is very good. The red background ties in well with the whole theme of the piece and makes a good, strong impact on the viewer. The message is clear and simple, and you included the site name so that people could get involved. The shape of Africa gets the viewer to think about people's lives in Africa, and how unfortunate they can sometimes be. You used a good amount of text and photos to balance out the design. Overall, the design flows nicely and shows good spacial organization and composition.

I htink this is a very persuasive poster. i like how the continent of Africa is the dominating part with it's placement in the center, and it makes you think of the people there. i also think that the poster has a nice rythym, with its repitionn of "Red" and the flow that carries you down the west coast of Africa and finally to the website. The balance is also very good and is acheived by the tilter at the top being offset with the woman at the bottom. Although the porportion is not realistic between the continent and the woman, i think that it ias good because the author did a good job stressing that the people are as important as the continent. I also think that there is good depth, because the continent stands out over the red backround. Overall, i think that this is the best poster of the class because it cleary gets the point across to buy red and the flow is really good.

I like this poster. This poster has a clearly presented message that is easily read. The relationship between the white shape and the red space is propotaonate and gives interest to the eye. The overlapping of the white Africa in to the red space acts as a lead in alowing your eye to follow the message diagonaly through the poster. I like the placement of all the element as well. No coner of the poster is the same and, although the Afria is placed in the middle, the artist has made it work through the intigration of other element such as text and image.

I agree that this is one of the better posters out there is the computer art classes. i like the way that the red follows the line of the continent altho i thought that you should have kept that up all the way to the right. this poster is easy to figure out what you are trying to persuade people to do however. i like the type text that you used although i dont really understand the perenthesis. i like the placement of the pictures and words because the spatial organization is very well done. i think that it is very catchy too. the poster is well balanced with the negative space and it is very ecual. the ribbon is very clear on the point it is trying to get across. also i like how you put the website so if you want to donate you dont have to look it up. all is all i think that this is the most effective poster from this class because the composition is very well done and it is balance.

I think this poster does a great job at capturing the persons attention and gets their message across quickly and effectively. The key to this poster is its simplicity, using only a few colors, contrasting them, a few important words, and streamlining it all into the design. The poster captures people with the red and white contrast, and the clean lines help get the professional feel out there, also bring attention to the poster. I think that this is a very strong design, good job.

I feel that this persuasive poster represents one of the most effective of all the posters. The dominant image of the African continent automatically gives the viewer a first look at what the persuasive poster is about. the color choice correlates the the cause, (the red representing aids), giving the poster a nice rhythm. The use of text gives a persuasive feel, which is part of the targeted goal. The images and phrases are balanced in an orderly manner, giving the poster a well proportioned look as well. Although there is a lack of negative space, the poster still proceeds to be effective, and creates a great composition.

I would say that this poster is very successful. It is a short meaning but is easy to understand. I like the balance in it and the spacial organization. I like how You outlined africa in red and you make it persuasive to go out and buy red to help aids. It is also very organized.

i would have to say that this is my favorite poster out of all of them. It looks professionally done and i feel that the message of buying red is well represented by using no other color than red and yor basic black and white.
