Project 5: Zoo Poster

PROJECT DESCRIPTION: This project was a poster design for the Birmingham Zoo. We randomly selected an animal out of the hat to be the focus of the poster. I selected the Rhinoceros. The objective for this poster design was to promote the Zoo, as well as to highlight the animal we chose using texture and stamped letterforms.For my concept, I decided to focus on the most distinguishable feature of the Rhino, its horn. I drew the silhouette of the horn, then traced that again under it, then repeated the process. I then shaded the design over my refrigerator to create an interesting texture. I imported these elements into Photoshop, added color and typography, then finished with the official zoo information at the bottom.
