Initial Sketches

Idea 1
Protest Poster series
Visual Research:
taking existing protest posters and refining them to create a graphic design outcome.
- put it to the people
- we love EU
- ME + UE forever
- lets stay together
- stop brexit
- BREXSHIT
- This is like when Geri Halliwell overestimated her viability as a solo artist and left the Spice girls
- Ikea has better cabinets 

Type only posters inspired by the handwritten typefaces used on handmade signs of protesters. Much like how Craig Oldham created a typeface from miners strike pickets. 

Pros: Large scale, eye-catching. Could use dayglow paper to make them stand out. 
Cons: Has been done before. Making a typeface would take a lot of time. Would not be suitable for this turn around. 

Idea 2
Mural
Visual Research:

Large scale painting / made on illustrator using vectors (like Obamas 'Hope' poster) 
Pros: Always wanted to make a large scale piece of work.
Cons: would only be able to make a mock up within the time fame, 

Idea 3
Stickers
Visual Research:

Pros: could be placed all around town. could create a hashtag and gain a following on social media. Easy to photograph in an urban environment. Aimed at young people - appropriate for demographics.
Cons: 

I will develop idea three as it is most appropriate for the demographic.
