Vis Com iii, print-based.


This poster is for the print-based design work we do in Visual Communication. I have taken the concept of 3 in roman numerals is 'III' but also used the basic printing process colours used for print-based design. The black dot representing K (black in CMYK) includes the letters 'rd' so now instead of reading '3', it should now read '3rd' (third).

Vis Com 3rd year.

After a wave of inspiration from pentagram partners, various posters and computer game advertisements, settling on one idea was tricky. So I figured maybe basing it on specific logo that could be spread across the whole of Vis Com. I've drawn my main inspiration from a set of adverts for the game 'Grand Theft Auto IV';
Their basic use of the roman numerals IV, meaning 4 (the sequel number) were enough to advertise GTA without using their name.
This made me think if I were just to use 'III' for the third year of Vis Com but add a spin onto the design of it, could it work?
