- The word 'discipline' in the quote against handmade design is perhaps more associated with handmade design rather than against it - consider changing quote? - however, once explained reasons behind choosing the quote this becomes clearer - a focus on structure.
- Question: Should the layouts be the same/consistent? - do not use the same layout on both posters, since this perhaps isn't experimental enough, especially in terms of mimicking handmade design aesthetics. However, have some small elements of consistency between the two, for instance, use the same grid system.
- Tagline "experience things differently" works, however this doesn't have to be big - will still make people think about the meaning of the posters when they see it - perhaps present this in the same typeface across the posters (consistency).
- Look at Milton Glaser poster - wow poster.
- Use a san-serif typeface for the poster which is meant to mimic digital aesthetics and a serif typeface for the poster which is meant to look handmade - having the same typeface throughout both posters might counteract the contrast I am trying to present.
- Look at Swiss design - Bauhaus posters.
- Experiment with using light paper - expose digital type onto this.
- Block colour works well in the posters - do not use image - colour adds an additional element which does not detract away from the purpose of the posters, good use of negative space.
- The way the tagline is placed in some layout ideas may not be appropriate to use in both posters - too structured?
- A found flaw in using the process of screen-print is that generally the designs have to be worked on and printed digitally first - the process should be presented as fully handmade.
- Use collage to rework digital type to be put into a screen-print?
- Use letraset - can be applied to acetate to expose a screen out of, however if being used as the process for against handmade quote, mimicking digital, the letters would have to be transferred perfectly to be able to appropriately mimic this, however letraset can be challenging and slightly temperamental in the process of doing so.
- Mimicking digital aesthetics works fine in the use of the grid as structure.
