M03 CP - Awareness Poster Part 2 : Smoking Awareness



 
 
 

For my awareness poster, I chose a very common issue in society, smoking. However, I didn't focus on the health aspect of the matter, I focused on the financial part of this. I researched different topics to see what is something I feel strongly about. I realized that since I work at a drugstore, I constantly see repeat customers in a few times a week just for cigarettes. I wonder how much money they are constantly throwing away to this deadly addiction. Anyway, I took a few photos of dollar bills with a flame, and garbage can. This is showing that people who smoke are practically throwing away their money, right into the garbage. Is it really worth it when you think of all the affects it has on your health and lifestyle?

  1. I really like how you took the aspect of money which most people trying to get someone to quit or are trying to quit never take the time to look at. I also like the way you have the money placed over the garbage can and on fire appearing like a no win situation. The text looks good with the effect you used, allowing the reader to really concentrate on the bold text in place above the translucent.

  2. Excellent. Short and sweet. Only thing I would change is maybe change "worth" from Black to Pink. It would read better.
    If you change it I will give you a 95. If not a 92.
