Posters

Fort part of our project i know we have to come up woth some designs for a poster for out Exhibition.

along side doing this i have also been looking on the internet at sites and companies who produce posters for comercial and corpriate use.

when i first started searching on this i though i would mainly find just printing companies wgo take your design and print how ever many copies you like but instead i found that there is a whole range of  way of advertising useing posters, such as digital advertising, billboards and transport advertising all using posters.

here are two site wich i found when searching posters:

http://www.transportmedia.co.uk/billboard-advertising/billboards.html

this site i found the most intresting giving you a rage of way to advertise using psters such as :

48 sheet (billboard)

96 sheets (billborad)

HD 48 sheets

HD 98 sheets

scrolling 58

Mega 6  (largest out door format)

backlit 48 & 96

Golden squares

Halo mega 6

land mark

3D build

and special builds

all these are a form of outdoor advertising on billboards, scrolling boards and stactic objects.

the other sight i foudn was as intrestign visually but i found it gave more options of how to advertise you choosen subject :

http://www.paintedpostermedia.co.uk/site/

on this site you can advertise at:

Bustops

on buses

telephone boxes

mobile advertising (moving transport)

taxis

street furniture

and cinema adverts

the site itself i found quite basic but it was easy to navigate n read through.

By research these types of site i realised just how bigger market ther eis in advertising using posters in this way and just how effective it can be.

will post my examplse of exhibiton posters a bit later

some of the images i took in london yesterday

here are some of the images i took at brewers key yesterday in london, this is one of the area i will be photographing.

with these images i have tried to capture the old architecture within the city and this certain part of london is the east end near the docks. Brewers quay was some sort of industrial building.

im trying to show the modern along side the old with in the images so you can see how the city had evolved through its buildings.

im also trying to capture certain aspects of the building them selves

more place to the right is a new modern construcstion of business building and i will be taking a closer look at the interesting architecture there

websites. liked how this one was set out.

for the web site i like i have choosen Auto Trader, now you might think this is abit odd but i have a few reasons as to why i have choosen it.
1. the colour of the site is simple and easy to read, white with pale blue writing but not too pale you canot read it.
2. everything is catorgorised easily and to access a different section on the site you simple click on the link and you are there.
3. when looking for car then give you set options and advanced option allowing you to search exactly for what you want, they use your postcode to location the nearest car to you.

i think this site is wasy to use and give you loads of options to search for eaxctly what you are looking for, there is no confusion how to go where you want to on the site and what your looking for.
with every site im sure there are bad points, the only thing on this site for me is the advertising (wich is motor based)  but like with ever comercial site there will be adverts so its not a majour bad thing.

ok ive decided to go to london on monday to take images for my project.
my project will be based on london city architexture both moder and old. i want to be able to capture london as a city representing the divecity with in using the camra to pick out what i think represent london best through its buildings.
im going to try and stay away from the key landmarks with in the city because i feel they over power the real essence of london they shaddow the old back streets and new office block, the urban, the finacial and residecial areas of london.

i will be making a list of photographers who have photographed cities and hopefully will be posting that soon.
