This is part of my product poster where the hand is attempting to grab the falling coins.

Noel's House Party

The TV programme 'Noel's House Party' has been an influence on another poster that I am producing that highlights the process of a product catching your eye. I used to watch and enjoy the programme broadcast live every Saturday night because of its mix of variety, celebrity and public involvement. The 'Grab a Grand' part of 'Noel's House Party' in which a member of the audience would stand inside a booth while money would be blown around at high speed for the person to catch and deposit in a container attached the side of that booth has influenced the money element in my poster. The fist appears to be grabbing falling money one of the themes is money grabber.     

Takeaway bag

This is one of the elements of my food poster, the idea of world food on sale at a supermarket in the form of a takeaway bag influenced the Band Aid song- 'Feed the World'.

Band Aid

I have been designing some posters for my supermarket project and for one of my posters I have focussed on Supermarkets blurring the edges between eating out and takeaway food. Band aid in 1985 was a collaboration of differing singers and groups led by Bob Geldof and Midge Ure that aimed to raise money for suffering third world people. The song they produced was called 'Do they know its Christmas' and I remember my Nan playing it to me as a child the lyric- 'Feed the World' stuck in my memory because it sounded such a positive message. These words informed the takeaway bag part of my poster reflecting the world foods section at Supermarkets. 

Consumerism faces

This is the first and last face that I have produced with the idea of untouched nature reflecting the beauty, fun and relaxation changing into aggressive, angst and coldness that I associate with the retail environment. 

Yellow Submarine (1968)

This is a image from 'Yellow Submarine' (1968). I love this film, I saw it as a child and thought that the imagery was dreamlike. The characters' of the Beatles legs were long and accentuated, the sound effects were unlike anything I'd heard before and the colours were bright.

Ivan Chermayeff

While producing my changing face designs I was looking at Ivan Chermayeff's face collages.
