Our project is to initiate a community into something of our choice. My community is an amateur radio society located in the RTP area. In my first attempt I made a poster initiating them to universal signals of distress. After critique yesterday I came away with a lot of great feedback to use in my second attempt.
These are the questions I need to ask myself on my second go around:
How can I make the process more immersive?
How can the signals be instructional/in-depth and make people want to remember/do?
How can I speak "through" the community and not "at" them?
How can I use the visual rhetoric that is dominant on the typography (ie: call signs) to speak more directly to the community?
What fonts, symbols and formats am I choosing that would feel most "authentic"? I was also surprised to be approached after critique by someone in my class who is a certified amateur radio operator and I got a lot of great feedback from him! I can't wait to see where this one will go in the week to come.
