POSTERS
AROUND THE CITY
Proposal:
nine different posters put up around the city resembling commercial
posters (young persons presented as cheerful, self-confident,
dressed in the latest fashions) by their visual message. The posters
need to look "actual" (appealing, well-designed, as for any commercial
product) in order to catch the attention of the viewer, and only
a more detailed reading of the poster reveals the different, socially
engaged message of the campaign.
Every
poster would contain:
- an image of a pregnant teenage girl
- her name, age, and part of the city she comes from
- her opinion or feeling about pregnancy
- a relevant statistic about the teenage pregnancy rate either
in Britain, England, Liverpool or the part of Liverpool that she
is from.
If
teenage girls or relevant agencies feel the use of minors on posters
in the city to be unsuitable, the other option is to put up posters
consisting of proposals for classified ads.
