Comminity Posters




I have designed these posters with the posters form The Prisoner in mind. I have chosen messages that advise citizens as well as instruct. They appear to be fairly light-hearted using a lowercase type and optimistic colours however the messages are ordering control and cooperation for a dull, repressed society.



I also experimented with capitals, which led to a more aggressive register. Capitals suggest a government portraying themselves openly as powerful and demanding whereas the lowercase are more suggestive, hinting at a power, an underlying message.

  1. I think i prefer the lower case as well as like you said its less suggestive of the power they hold over you.
