Stand up for yourself

The unique use of color in this work of art gives a sense of warm and cold at the same time. Adding in the red color that is added over the picture warms up the design, and also gives a more intense feeling. The poster is very transparent. The red color gives pathways into the main focus of the picture on the bottom but leads you away from the focus of the picture on the top, so the artist didn't use path ways very effectively. The texture of this poster is very rough because of the red color that is added in. There is a pretty good balance in this work, with the red towards the left and the writing on the right, they kind of off set each other. Overall this is a good work of art but could use some touching up with pathways into the focus of the picture.

I thought the color durations used were very thought provoking and made the design look a lot better. I also liked how you took a picture of people fighting. It makes the picture look as if they are actually going to fight and brought the picture to life. The way the circle around the main point draws focus to what is actually wanted. It made it a lot easier to get to the point. Also the way the font was portrayed was very interesting. I like the color used but i almost think a blue would have been better. The color red faded makes the photo look dull when looked at for some time. The balance of the picture works though and makes it interesting to the eye.

this poster is one of the better ones i have seen so far. i really like the idea of the circle of clear image and the rest in pink. gray and white. i think that if you blurred the outline of the circle it would make it look a little better, but its also good the way it is. i also like your font choice and think it fits well with the image. the idea is very strong and i think you have persuaded the viewer very well. overall its a funny poster but also a very serious issue.
