I started the proposal a few weeks before starting the project, I wrote about what it was that I want to do, I put the target audience as young adults because I think that they are not yet sure about child abuse and there is a lot of young parents. I thought that they might only think that physical abuse is the only type of child abuse and neglect their child. I think it is important to get the message across to young parents. I had known about child abuse for a while I know people who have been abused as a child so I thought it would be easy for me to do.
I made a schedule for getting all of the work done. I managed to keep to the schedule however I did not give myself much time for the actual creation for the poster. I gave myself enough time to do the research in and outside of college. I gave myself a lesson to create the presentation and make any final touches to the website however due to someone I wanted to be my model hasn't been to the lesson for a while or has been to busy with his work so I couldn't get any pictures for the poster.
I did a lot of research online looking at posters. Most of the posters show physical abuse and nothing about the other types of abuse. I also put a survey up and it showed that not many people knew about all the types of abuse. They all thought it was a good idea to create a poster showing all the different types. The survey shown that people dont know what is the right punishment for those who abuse children. I also researched an artist called Lanny Sommese. He had done some posters for child abuse that is not physical. There was not much information about his past so I dont know what had inspired him to create the poster. All of the research I had done was very helpful in the creation for the poster. I found out that not many people knew about child abuse and that most think it is about physical abuse.
I did all of my research for my pre production and I had been playing in photoshop deciding what my poster would look like. For my production I spent about 2 weeks looking through the internet and adding it to my poster. I did not want to write a lot for each type of abuse so I took what I thought was the most important parts and added them in. I also coloured in the title using the paintbrush tool. I spent about 2 weeks in photoshop creating the poster I was waiting for a lot of the time trying to get a model to take pictures of. In the end I decided to go on and continue making the poster without a picture. I made sure that all of the information needed was on there.
I had to create a powerpoint presentation for the poster going through what inspired me and why I choose to do this project. I also got some peer feedback from Oskar who said the information was good however he thinks I should of put more colour on it to make it eye catching. I felt like I rushed through everything during the presentation and I could've explained more. I also feel like I should've done more on the presentation.
Overall I think that the project was ok. I felt like I could've done more for the presentation and the website could've done with some pictures and make it more colourful. However I think that the information was good and people would learn something new from it. If I was to do this project again I would find someone else to be my model and I would've worked on my presentation more.
