2. Collaged Poster
*at least 10 images, half must be authored by student *must use some element of type in the poster.   Perhaps you would like to make a poster for your first solo show at the Whitney, perhaps this is a promotional poster (like that for a movie, play, or even a travel poster) 


I leave this up to you, but I want Original work.  You may use digital painting techniques if you like. 

You will receive an extra 10 points if you complete the submission process and enter your poster in one of the poster contests that you find online.  This project will require some research and some critical thinking and idea generating/brainstorming.   It would be wise to use a sketchbook to organize your ideas and your designs before executing the digital manipulation. 

Here are some links to poster design contests:
