Poster Research — Research Brief — OUGD603

Looking at various formats that could inspire the final outcome for the presentation of the data, we eventually decided on a poster, as it provides a solid contrast to the nature of the research. With it all being screen based, printing it seemed to make it more thought provoking than being something that can be scrolled past in a second.

Opting for a poster instead of a publication stems from the fact information on your mobile is available instantly, therefore having the research on a single side of A3 means it can be observed much quicker.

This poster is of huge significant to our research, the face that this has been an issue since 1945 says a lot about the reasons for doing a research project of this nature.

Stock Choice

Opting for G. F. Smith Colorplan Smoke extends back to my personal branding, in that it resembles the same shade as concrete, fitting perfectly with the context of this particular research.
