Assignment 1: Dreams

For Assignment 1, I have to design an A3 size poster for a play titled Dreams.

Theme of the play: Surrealistic experimental play about lost opportunities and dreams of a young Singaporean. It is a story about a person who sacrificed his/her life for someone else's future. The tone of the play is dark comedy.

I am supposed to develop my own story for this play.

These are my thumbnail sketches of my concept.

This is the the final product that I developed from one of my sketches.


Comments from the class are:

• The big black stripe at the top is too chunky and awkward
• The male figure is not that clear
• Alignment of the words at the bottom can be changed

Possible improvements suggested by the class are:

• The black stripe can be replaced with more details of the play
• I should draw a more prominent male figure to clearly indicate the figure is a male
• The words at the bottom can be aligned to the right.

I would be posting the improved version of the poster soon. In the meantime, if you have any suggestions on how I can improve my poster, please feel free to comment. Thank you.
