Here Symposium Poster
For my final Here poster, I decided to use common symbols to represent the five themes of the event*: collaboration, community, discovery, curiosity, and contrast. I chose to use easily recognizable imagery for the fact that they hold a specific, shared connotation for nearly all American people (for example, a lit lightbulb above a head illustrates that the person has an idea). That way, anyone viewing my poster can make sound assumptions on what this event is about. To aid in that process, I also added images of art making, such as a pencil, paintbrush, pen, etc.
I then oriented those collaged images so that they seemed to be funneling through the Here logo into the girl's mind. I added lines to create a downward movement through my piece. The three media I used are collage, marker, and vector drawing. I edited my marker drawing in Illustrator to fit in with the aesthetic of the poster better. All images used were found online labeled for reuse.
*These were the given themes for the 2017 symposium, but the Here logo template had 2016 on it. I'm not savvy enough in Illustrator to know how to fix it, so that's why my sketches have the 2017 date on them and this final does not.
