Radio Then & Now

Print, Collage, Poster Series

The Task

The goal was to create two posters that compliment and interact with each other. The posters needed content that attracted attention at a distance, but also rewarded a viewer for taking a closer look.

The Process

I explored radio shows of the past and podcasting of the present. I utilized both type and image to represent sound waves to tie the posters together, making them a set. During this project, I contracted COVID-19 and was unable to work for a week and quarantined for an additional week. Without the usual classroom critique and creative atmosphere I was creatively blocked.

The Takeaway

I learned from this experience how valuable a creative atmosphere can be, even if only communicating through video conference. It is best not to create in a vacuum. Because of this project, I have become better at communicating and collaborating with my peers.
