Mixed Hearts Poster

Two variations with the same layout, just changing the size of the font to see if it changes the effect. I feel this layout is the most successful. The statistic of 3 out of 10 people donating isn't as strong with this one as all the precious and wasted hearts are different and it isnt as obvious that they are split. I still like it though.
Below i think the text is too bunched up together and too close to the images considering it is supposed to be an A2 or A1 size poster, not a banner.
Again, i like the white space between the text and the image but as with the other poster in certain locations the images could be hidden by things like trains or trees.

Although the mixed hearts on a page don't have quite the same impact or message that the red and black hearts have, i still think the poster looks quite good with the range of hearts i have made. I have just been playing around with the layout of this poster today.

More Trial and Error with the posters!

I think the poster works better with the white space between the images of the hearts and the text at the bottom to allow the viewer enough time to digest the message. I have also come up with a tagline for the project "Have a heart, become a donor" which i think works quite well for the campaign. The hint of red in the text was a suggestion from my friend who is studying graphic design which i was very grateful for as i feel this pulls the image and text together.
This poster has been condensed so it could be displayed in a tube carriage for example.



I like space between the text and image but if this poster were on the tube you would see the text before the image and i think it shoudl be the other way around. The text should accompany the image rather than the image accompanying the text.


I have just been focussing on the red and black hearts poster at the moment, trying to get it to look right with the text and image working together.

Using photolythography to transfer text about how to register as a donor on to the clay hearts.

Mixture of porcelin and grit clay to hopefully create cracks.

Using 'slip' or liquid clay to create the rust effect.

The squashed heart.

I've decided to continue with the campaign for organ donation and am responding to the statistic only 28% people are on the organ donation register by making 3 'precious' hearts and 7 'wasted' hearts. Here are a few so far;
