My safe sex poster

This is my poster for assignment 2B. The images were drawn in paper, then they were traced and colored in Photoshop.
The layout and text were done in Illustrator.
There are some problem when I post this poster on blog because the color changed although the content still keep the same

My favourite poster

http://www.infoforhealth.org/pr/l12/l12boxes.shtml

I’m strongly favored in this poster. This is a drawing poster and the image of penis is presented lively. I think it’ll help the poster much more effective in Vietnam. Actually, in Vietnam, there are quite many people; especially young people in countryside might not know what condom is used for (Vietnamese parents mostly never tell their children about that). This poster is so clear; condom is used to cover the penis when it heats up. “Heats up” here explains the feeling of the man when they prepare to start a sexual activity. The metaphor meaning of the text “Cover up when it heats up” on this poster is very interesting. The color of the poster is all suitable to the images that are used. Grey, Black and white colors make the images not look really very much. People will not be so shy to look at it.

Un proportion between the image of condom and people are getting sex to strongly remind people should remember to use condom before having fun.

This is a French poster On the woman's purse, the words "prudence" and "abstinence" appear while the man holds a box of (condoms?) with the word "prudence" on it. On their heads are wearing "condoms", it is one good way to emphasis to importance of condom.

The text help to warn viewer what they can do and which one can not when the get sex. The target audience here are students and young groups. They also target to gays and lesbians. The central point of this poster is "Using condom to demonstrate you are true man"
