Awareness Campaigns poster study.
Monday, Tuesday 10th.
Poster N°1 shows a deer standing on top of a waste dump. It’s striking because the deer is made of rubbish. It’s dark and moving. It wants us to realize that if we don’t recycle our rubbish, animals’ habitats will disappear and wild animals will die.
Poster N°2 represents an ice cream which looks like a penguin. It’s melting so it symbolizes the melting of the ice cap which is the penguins’ habitat. It wants us to be aware that if we don’t act now, wild species will go extinct.
There’s an elephant on poster N°3. It’s made of letters that look like a skeleton. It represents the idea that if animals disappear, their names will only remain for the next generations just like the dodo.
Poster N°4 shows Barack Obama in the future. He looks old because his hair is white. It tells us that if politicians don’t act now, it will be to late. It’s a warning. It criticizes / blames the politicians for not acting in time.
Poster N° 5 represents an ordinary light bulb whose shadow is shaped like a skull. It means that if we don’t turn / switch off our lights, energy is wasted and we should use energy saving light bulbs instead of ordinary one. It’s a straightforward recommendation.
