Poster 1- Georgina Paulus nield

Aimed at teenagers

This poster is aimed at our target audience of teenagers  aged 13-16 and we designed it by adding features that we thought would be attractive to them. We put in a light green background as we know that green is a very gender neutral color and the brightness of the green makes it more attractive to the target audience as it is more striking and eye catching. The green also links to our logo and we did this so that we could have a distinct house style running throughout the poster. Our fonts also add to the house style as we only used two. For the title and the subheadings we used 'Kristen ITC' as we thought that this was a very clear font but because it is a slightly child like/ handwriting style font which we thought would attract teenagers more. The font we used for the title and sub-titles is 'EDO' and we thought it was the most attractive because it has a 'graffiti' style effect which is more appealing and stereo-typical to teenagers. We have also included lots of images and a more than we included on the poster aimed at the parents of teenagers because we know that younger peoples fine images more interesting as they tend to spark their imaginations and give them a more realistic view on the campaign than plain text. We also added doodles around certain areas of the poster as this gives it more of a scrapbook and stylish effect which is very attractive. In our text we used elements of informal language such as 'hang out' and 'check us out'. We did this because we thought that the teenagers would be able to relate to it more and furthermore would find it more interesting. We also added our logo and slogan because we wanted these to be present on all of our advertising media formats as that the public can recognise it and link it to our campaign. Another feature we added was the links to our social networking sites and website. The reason we did this was because teenagers stereo-typically use facebook and twitter a lot so we thought that it would be a good idea to put it on all our media formats.
