Week 13: Visual Techniques

Bod Dylan - Milton Glaser
Contrast, Asymentry, Simplicity
Unity



The Typografe of David Carson
Irregularity, Instability, Complexity,
Fragmentation, Intricacy, Activeness
Distortion, Juxtaposition

These two poster use different techniques to communicate their message. In the first one we can see that the use of contrast is the predominant technique, also the unity and singularity of the poster make us focus in the silhouette of the artist. The designer also add some color to contrast to the black and white part of the poster. On the other hand, the second part is more complicated, it is more irregular and intrincated. All the distortion and juxtaposition going on in the poster make it more active. In this way the designer tries to communicate his message.
