MA+Forum+Poster

=**POSTER FOR EVENT**= We need the poster done (and cabinets filled by wednesday 7th Nov) for the MA students to see them. We should try to articulate what we're doing with this event.

=Ideas= Please post ideas and add comments below. If you can't work out how to upload an image then click on **Help** at the top of the page and find out.

Below is an idea for the poster (done with the previous wrong date) (Tim)

...I feel the tone, title and "who cares?" with the wood engravings don't relate to the seriousness with which I believe our colleagues are approaching this event. (David)

I think it would be good if we could do a poster with a montage of images from everyone taking part - it would only take an hour to put it together for print. I think it could work well visually in black and white. If we could agree the words by Monday.(John).

John, how about uploading the ear poster you sent me, Andy said he liked that one! Not sure if he was kidding or not :) (tim)



This is the idea - I am happy if you want to use it I can send you a high res jpeg or pdf to print from. But I do think a montage of everyone's images may be a good alternative. It wont take long to prepare for print, either way. It just needs a democratic decision. JW

What about if we re-stage this scene in one of the cabinets. It would certainly make people stop and look. (tim)

Hi David and John, would it be possible to get onliners to vote for the posters so we can have a democratic decision? I'll email everyone here and will forward the results to you guys since we need to have the posters and emails sent by tomorrow. Thanks for all the work guys. (Katrin)

hi all

this is just an idea: what if we took everyone's still from the spectrum page and had strips of these thumbnail images and kept it and used it as a logo every time we needed to have something for posters & publicity etc? There maybe not enough time to do this for the 14th but it could be useful for any future events ? susan mortimer

Hi susan! I'm with you on this:) Katrin

I agree - I have suggested that this would be the most representative way of doing this. The images could be montaged on the spectrum background. Just post images ASAP. jw

Hi everyone, Susan's idea about the logo/strips is great. i think we should do that. Nikolas

Hi guys, I agree with Susan, JW and Nikos. Just a question though, do i hold off sending posters to the university? This is kind of hard...MA students usually come in on wed for their tutorials and I have to get the poster out to the Student Union ASAP so they can send it out. Katrin

I was going to suggest taking an image from everyone and adding it to that vector/shit drawing thing that seems to have disappeared! Similar to what Susan has suggested and what JW was on about. Strips would echo film too...so, nice. Guess we are out of time....? The other 'idea' was to make one of those horrible WORD bendy text type posters you see at jumble sale and so on...well, I thought it would be funny.... Bob.
