OUGD505 - Studio Brief 01 - Poster Visuals

As the city beach exudes a sense of summer fun and chilled out relaxed vibes I wanted to create an analogue poster that reflected this. Through my research I have discovered that the city beach hosts a wide range of fun games and activities with an array of activities that epitomise the summer months. 

These include: 

- Sandcastles / buckets and spades
- Windmills
- Deck Chairs
- Ice Creams

- BBQ

- Cocktails

- Pimms
- Water fights
- Pool Inflatables
- Fairground Rides
- Stalls
- Coconut Shies
- Tropical theme
- Pirate Boats
- Helter Skelter
- Wave Ride
- Dodgems
- Sunglasses
- 'Oasis'
- Palm Trees
- Board Walk 

Here are some examples of the kind of visuals I want my poster to include:  

• Inflatable bubble writing (obviously not saying this word) But this fun aesthetic. 

• Neon Writing - I want to use bright luminous inks

• Visual puns - A lot of bright unnatural colours and inflatables.

• Pool / Water references - There is not actually a pool there so don't want to cause confusion. Want to include water references though. 

• Summer related typography

• Pool inflatables 

• Bright Colours

I also want to look into some tropical summer prints:

Ideas for the poster itself:

• Life's a beach - Millennium Square 
• Replace city related items with beach/summery things - Similar to the spray bottle above. 
• Have very flat vector imagery like the Leeds Food Festival branding
• Bubble Type and Bright Colours
