I don't like these posters! Number one reason is ginagawa silang premature re-election campaign materials na nakakadistract from their more relevant messages. New projects announced are ignored given the shameless advertising elements; and appropriate greetings like founding anniversaries are ignored given the advertising notion subliminally propagandized.
Number two reason is that they're plain ugly aesthetically. Faces are too digitally "lifted" and not too appealing; elements are scattered; and colors are death-defyingly shocking and over the top. The wrong side of tarpaulin, its usual material, and some other poster materials like paper are not a good sight also with their wood, paper, stone, hollowblock, or bottled mineral water foundations.
Design-wise, if the main message and not the campaigning is really the intention, they're failures. Obvious naman ang pangungumpany ang bigger motive given the bigger size of the officials' elements than the project detail elements or simple greeting. Hindi na makuntento ang mga officials sa isang text line of attribution sa kanila ng project or greeting to the point na lamunin na ng mukha at palamuti ang government logo, project name, at project details or the message of good will. Credit is due; but respect is more important.
I wouldn't write this article; if I wasn't struck by the phenomenon that much. Gawd, I even know more officials of a nearby city than my city because of this. Gosh, where's subtlety when you need it? xD Hinay-hinay lang sa pangungumpanya; may bukas pa! :))
On other news, i'm wearing a jacket today! I'm loving how I rock this jacket of my sister! :D I'm not really a jacket person; so this is rare! xD
