LITERACY POSTERS

'Nearly all of our communication in 2020 is happening through a screen. How can we know what is real? How do we know what sources we can trust? How do we know what is true, and what is "fake news"?'

Keeping this in mind, the theme for these posters is 'information literacy.'​​​​​​​



The "Authenticity" poster moved into this composition slightly later in the creative process. Originally, the intention was for words to be spewed/jumbled as they travel through a digital device. Eventually a simpler typographic design, which also focuses more on the distortion of the text, was followed and proved to be more visually resonating. 

The "Spot Your Filter Bubble" poster shows a strong and noticeable evolvement from the initial sketches. The shapes of bubbles being active forms in the composition, their gradients give some interest in the background, especially against the red type and figures.
