I believe that this poster is very well thought out and put together. The poster's dominance is the picture and mostly on the woman's stomach to signify abortion. There is great balance in this poster to. The words are very balanced in the way that they are strategically placed. I liked how they placed abortion on the top because that is the focal point. Then it flows down to show you the woman's stomach. The poster flows really well. The proportion of the words is great because abortion is the biggest since that is what the poster is about and it grabs your attention. As you look down the poster the words get smaller and it all balances out nicely. If the words towards the bottom were to be any bigger there wouldn't be a sense of balance. Another word that is an attention grabber is Who's because it grabs your attention right away and makes you want to read further. I Think this is a really strong piece of work although i don not agree with it, i really liked it.

I really like this poster. The proportion of this poster is done well, the "abortion" is the first thing seen and very big. The balance of the words is very good also. This poster has a very nice flow, it really looks good with the few words and well selected image.

--This piece has a really strong message and i agree with it. The dominance of the picture is on where the child would be to signify the abortion. This is my favorite, well done steven.

This poster is well balanced with the dark text on a light background and the white text on a dark background. There is a definate flow from the word "Abortion" through the woman's stomach to the rhetorical question "Who's Body is it?" I would suggest keeping the font the same type with "abortion" and "who's body is it?" The question really makes you think, and is very persuasive.

WOWZERS!! you hit this head on! First off i completely agree with the meassage you are intending to send. I like how the picture takes up the whole background, and actomatically becomes the most signifact thing on the page. This is very effective because pictures speak 1000 words! I think you used negative space well, and the flow of your work is also very good. However when in comes to your font i feel like you could do a bit more work. I like how abortion is all captial, because it immediatly makes it dominating. It was also creative how you made you A bigger as a lead into to the word. I do think that the word abortion should be a little bigger becasue it is the topic of the poster. I also am not a fan of the shadow behind the word, that could probably be improved. Your phrase at the bottom is very creative and gets one thinking. It proves a point without being too obvious. You did a really good job at changing the size and pacement of teh words to create movement and readabilty when reading. I do think that the size and placement could be tweaked a bit. I like the simplicity of the colors, becasause it does not distract from the meassage, just aids in the explination. Overall, very well done!
