OUGD505 Studio Brief 02 - Anti-Racism Posters

Anti-Racism Posters:


I think this poster is really effective the stencil type print helps to give a more tactile approach which makes the message being portrayed seem authentic and sincere. The use of only two colours makes for a more striking contrast where the large graphic image makes a bold statement. The simple imagery makes it understandable to a range of audiences.


Bold striking imagery paired with contrasting colours produces a strong visual outcome. Large scale type is eye-catching, as the message is communicated very clearly.

Luke Turner, 2009


Friendly, approachable design that uses softer more neutral colours. Simple message, big impact imagery.




Simple use of photography that people will be able to relate to. The small scale text makes you look closer and helps to add emphasis to the message.



Shocking but effective concept to get message across clearly.



Softer tone to promote a more friendly message then shock. Message is clear across all cultures as it has a simple design.

After having looked for anti-racism posters it is clear that simple, direct messages work the most effectively. Strong concepts and bold, eye catching imagery help to grab attention. Colour should definitely be considered and used appropriately.
