Environment related messages

[kuldeeps10]

Hi, here are a few environment related images. They are not aesthetically beautiful, but combined with the messages used in them, I hope to get the message across. Please give your honest opinion about them, and any changes/improvements in the photos used, fonts, message etc.

Thanks,
KS
(There are some more of these type of images which I could not upload due the limit of 3 attachments here.)

hello kuldeeps. i like your thought in tryoing to do something meanigful for the earth through yor work. but maybe you should leave the layouts to professionals and concentrate on your photography: I am suggesting that you share your photography with a professional graphic designer who can then layout your thoughts. better still also get hold of a good copywriter who can help jam with you.

on the desicreative forums itself you can see some people who are looking for creatuve collaborations : see here

also I am posting some work on the same theme (save earth) so you can get an idea of what kind of work people are doing. the you can see for yourself where to improve.

(also you can add more than three images by replying to your own topic)

good examples, basant kumar. what do you have to say, kuldeeps?

[vikas]

god show, basant kumar! great!

[kuldeeps10]

Thank you Basant. The examples you have given provide a very good idea about how ads and messages such as these need to be shown. I will follow this advice

One of my ideas...

'Save Trees' sticker

love this one! Objectz in the mirror disappear very fast! Awesome!

[Saumya]

what do you do if the objects in the rear view mirror are ugly cars?

then the message doesnt work.

[antzfx]

@Desh Premi: Thanks!
@Saumya: Well, suppose that the sticker is opaque -- showing trees and blue sky (now it's 50% area is opaque and the rest is transparent). Then, it may work as we are not seeing any ugly cars.

[Ek Kanya]

sorry but if the sticker is Opaque, its unsafe to drive, right? if your rear view mirrors are not reflecting whats behind you, then its unsafe?

[antzfx]

Very true. The idea is to stick this to the mirrors of parked cars (A guerrilla campaign?). When the driver returns and starts the car, he will definitely look at the mirror and will see the sticker and its message. I hope that he will be irritated and remove the sticker!

kuldeeps10, i on the other hand love your layouts. it is simple, no nonsense, gets the message across. in basant kumar's examples i have to look for the line, take a magnifying glass, etc. in yours, bang! i know what you are talking about! yes it could have looked better, but as a piece of communication it has done its work. that's all that matters to me at least.
antzfx love your car sticker.
