Audience
General public, social media viewers, awareness campaign attendees.

Design
Process

01
Concept

Collaborative ideation with film students.

We brainstormed themes that resonated with our collective voice. The film students brought narrative depth, while I focused on visual translation and composition.

02
Visual Exploration

Mood boards and style directions.

I created mood boards exploring typography treatments, color palettes, and photographic styles that could convey the raw emotion of the message.

03
Composition

Building the visual hierarchy.

Using Photoshop and Illustrator, I composed the layout balancing negative space, typography, and imagery to guide the viewer's eye through the message.

04
Refinement

Iterating based on feedback.

Multiple rounds of critique with the film students helped refine the design until the visual message landed with clarity and impact.

05
Final Output

Print-ready and digital delivery.

The final poster was prepared in multiple formats — print-optimized for physical displays and web-ready for social media sharing.

04 / Reflection

Collaborative design taught me the value of cross-disciplinary thinking. The film students' narrative instincts and my visual craft created something neither could have achieved alone.
