Studio Brief 01 - Evaluation

The screen printing process was something completely new, as I had not experimented with a gradient colour print before. Achieving a successful gradient was not an easy task as the paint had to be constantly topped up, which took time, and could have as a result dried my screen more quickly, causing the last couple of prints to come out more faded than full colour.

The use of the rainbow gay pride flag was important for this design and very relevant as the main feature of the design was a typographic expression of the word "YEAH!"; used to create a positive and uplifting vibe. However the main element of the design was not focused around the word "Pride" or "Leeds"and it did not feature the word "Gay" or "LGBTQ". Furthermore, this was done for a reason as I wanted the colours to represent the gay community instead of the words.

The design I believe has been successful as it boldly expresses the aesthetics of what pride is about - being loud about who you are and celebrating a community that brings people together through positivity.
