Making the banners


This week my work experience has been all about the banners. I have been Finding out about the need of banners to communicate to the illiterate work force and the importance of using colour, from and shape to represent the counties and establishments. The designs had to be produced using muted colour palettes not only because of the dying processes and the materials that were available but also so they would make a visual impact on camera but also not to distracting. Getting the balance was an enjoyable challenge. The graphics artist concentrated on getting the right typography for the text and I hand sewn and machined the structures of the banners. My knowledge of the vinyl cutter was very handy and i had the chance to put them skills to the test. Three down and five to go.
