Plan of the week

Last weeks plan was to pick a brief that I wanted to do for my WBL. I managed to complete all the goals that I set out to do in last weeks plan. I picked a brief and started researching it.

The brief I picked is being held by a company called 'Poster for tomorrow' the brief basically is to design a poster. Every year they hold this brief they pick a different humanitarian topic to draw attention to. The best 100 posters will be displayed in multiple locations worldwide on December 10th which is the International Human Rights Day.

This year 'Poster for tomorrow have chosen the topic gender equality. On there website they state why they have chosen this topic.

"But why gender equality?
What makes gender equality, well, different from all the other possible topics?
The condition of women has undergone undeniable improvements during the last century. But these improvements haven't happened everywhere and even where they have been the strongest, well, they are far from being strong enough."

The brief doesn't have that many limitations just that the poster needs to be portrait in layout and it must be illustrated so that means no photographs. So as far as briefs go its pretty flexible, I'm looking forward to trying my hand at illustration again as I've only done one brief this year that specialized in it and that was the Penguin book brief which I loved, so lets hope this brief goes just as well.

So this weeks plan, researching deeper into 'Poster for tomorrow' there history, previous years briefs, researching gender equality and what its like around the world for women. Just lots of researching truth be told.

Lets hope it stirs up some ideas.
