Recent news

David Icke.


In our research we looked a David Icke due to his views on the human race and reptiles, which is relevant to our song.
Just recently we were browsing the online newspapers and we came across this news article about his sellout tour and recent controversy.
The Sun




Our Community.


I also stumbled across an article about communities in America reworking propaganda to help counteract the bad decisions made by the government.





I think this is relevant because it helps highlight the popularity of propaganda and the use of it in the modern society.

Feedback

I posted my work onto a photography & graphics forum, as I don't have Facebook. So I could get some feedback on my work, here are some examples of the comments received.

This comment referenced on the likeness of my work to russian propaganda which I'm really pleased about because propaganda was my main influence.

 This comment especially pleased me because Alexander Rodchenko propaganda was the main influence for my poster.

This comment interested me because I've noticed this with the font myself, I do think it looks good but this might be something I want to sort out, to avoid confusion. (see below)

This comment I can understand because the photograph might not be understood, especially if the audience aren't aware of my propaganda influence.

Propaganda.

To continue with my propaganda inspiration I have decided to look at some Soviet Propaganda.
In this post I will include some examples of soviet artwork and a brief explanation.


Propaganda is a form of communication that is aimed at influencing the attitude of a community toward some cause or position so as to benefit oneself or one's group.

Wall posters were widely used in the early days, often depicting the Red Army's triumphs for the benefit of those who cannot read, throughout the 1920s, this was continued and carried on into World War II and consisted of bold simple designs.

The posters are designed to burn an image into the minds of the people, that after a while would come to be accepted as an undeniable truth.

We'll execute the plan of the great works.

Thousands of hands are raised voting "yes." The theme of this poster is conformity, it defines what others are doing and forces an individual to question their position.

Have You Enlisted In the Army?

Glory to the mighty air force of the country of the Socialism.

This is a post designed to show an inspiring picture of force and mass to be considered a good vehicle to promote confidence, self-righteousness and feel good about being part of the good guys' crowd.

Franz Ferdinand.

Franz Ferdinand are a very well known band that use propaganda inspired artwork for their album covers.

I think propaganda is a great theme to have for artwork as its generally an everyday part of life, although it may be more covalent, we do tend to see various signs of propaganda around.

Its also quite an interesting top and quite controversial, Franz Ferdinand have designed their albums so that if you don't know about the links with propaganda, you would probably just think its a good design!
