my idea was on preventing domestic violence. i wanted to show a picture of a bloody wrist to portray violence. and having the fist alot bigger than the woman and children to show that it is intimidating.
moreover, i added words at the background to further strengthen the violence factor of the poster.

however, i received feedback that i should show the knuckles instead of the wrist side, and i should change the colours abit because some words are not really readable.

well. the story is about this fat girl, who (metaphorically) had a dream to be a superstar. She tried to go on a super diet, exercised vigorously, and in the end, succeeded in becoming a star. She held a concert at the Singapore Indoor Stadium and it was full housed.

Eventually... she realised. it was all but a dream. T_T

actually i thought the storyline was quite clear. But people pointed out that the transition from the 50kg to the concert scene was not clear. suggestions was that i should take away the concert parts entirely, and lengthen the losing-weight scenes. But the problem is that i like the concert scene alot. maybe... i can add a picture of her being inspired by singers? or holding a microphone? hmm...

dilemma dilemma dilemma..

this was the original final step of the pictogram. but everyone felt that it could be simplified more. so i moved on to edit it even further. so i got a simple pictogram as shown below.


FINAL pictogram chosen. Blogger is being weird with the colour of uploads recently. i have no idea why. the colours are supposed to be the same as the reduction process below! >.<
final 5 steps of abstraction.
