Graphic Design in terms of Propaganda
The design of a poster & the purpose of it
The design of a poster & the purpose of it
What is Design ?
What does it mean ?
What falls under the word Design ?
Basically Graphic Design is Visual Communication that persuades people, that is it's purpose.
But how does it persuade ? With what ? As I researched and understood the term Visual Communication I automatically realised that Typography, Illustrations, Photography & also the colours used can effect the viewer.
An example that persuades people's mind & getting them to start doubting things is the word : Propaganda. This word is very influential in Graphic Design as it had an idea behind it (ideology) & at the same time it's an advertisement, it can be a visual satire. Although Propaganda equals to Ideology & the effect on society | Advertisement equals to Selling the product.

Twitter is a big influence on society & therefore Graphic Designers
are using Propaganda posters to gather people by looking at this
poster & automatically start wondering why is Twitter a big
influence ? Why stating the word : Be Brief, The enemy might be
listening in !
The artwork consists of Blue, Red & a golden background with a
type of boldness (white on Blue). The Blue bird is the symbol of
Twitter, a huge bird that is taking over the half of a poster & then
there are 8 small Red birds flying as a pack, but what is the message
here ? It's obvious to some, but blind to others, as I said before it's
a Big influence. The Blue bird is always watching US !
