My Stance

Im something that I have a very strong opinion is equal pay in the workplace. It has always been known that men make more then women for doing the same job. Earlier this year there was the sony hack where lots of information was discovered. Something that was seen was how women were being paid less then men with whom they were co-staring with Jennifer Lawrence had a very strong opinion on the issue and I agree with her there should be equal pay everywhere it does not matter in what industry one works. Women should be payed the same as men for doing the same jobs.

Another issue that bothers me is animal cruelty people get pets to just abuse them. That makes me so angry they're no need to abuse an innocent creature they are not the reasons for ones problems. I find it an unnecessary thing they're no need to abuse an animal they provide love not hate.  I believe they're is no need to abuse someone who has not done anything to you.

HIstory Of Posters

What characteristics of the Japanese wood block prints attribute to the French posters during the 1880s?

• The characteristics embraced by the french from the Japanese block prints were their use of bright colors, Flat figures and Black outline.
• also they also focused on the beauty of their culture in the Japanese painting their lots of culture that influence the french to start showing their culture too.

Of the Early European Illustrated Posters- which poster and designer attracted your eye? What about their design style do you like? Do you see it's relevance in graphic design today?

• Edward Penfield work catches my eye because it seems very simple compared to the other two around it. It has a very clear focal point my eye goes directly to the women nothing else. While the other one my eye moves around to look at the background. The color are dark so it catches my attention its different from the other two. I like how its just in one part of the page i don't have to look around to find other things. I like how it has small pops of color. Is see the relevance of it. It shows how we still do similar things just in different ways back then thing were drawn while now is made in a computer.

In the Cubism Meets the Airbrush tab- How are these posters different than the Early European work? How would you describe the style? 

• The cubism posters has a more abstract feeling while the European were trying to give a more realistic feeling. The cubism focuses more on geometric shapes. Also they focus on more of a darker feeling the European ones had soft color and flowers and a very delicate feel. While cubism has more of a dark feel with the colors and demon looking things and the person that looks like its being torture . Cubism was very attention grabbing makes you make to look twice.

For the Photographic Posters- choose one of the artwork that appeals to you and how do you think they created these posters without Photo shop? Brief explanation on how you think they did it. 

• The photo montage or Collage? poster grabbed my attention because of all the pieces it has . Its very cluttered and layered. I believe that the artist took a bunch of images and cut them out then glued then on. After layering everything he or she simple printed it. I assume all the work was done by hand.

From the Swiss Posters, choose one poster where the composition has a clear focal point, then choose one where the composition has movement/dynamic. Explain why you chose them. 

• The Swiss international style poster has a very clear focal point immediately one eye goes to the golden mountain. That the part that stand out because the other colors are very close in tone .
• The Herbert matter has a lot of movement because we have have the face of the women in the front but in the background we have people. that are skiing with gives it the feel of movement.
