The live protest was the first chance my group had to look at all of our work together. I think you can see consistency in all of our placards, from the use of sans serif fonts for the majority, to using hand written fonts as well. We also all used very similar colours, mainly black and white with aspects of colours being added in a few. We also all made handmade placards which was something we spoke about a lot as we thought this would be much more moving and more like a traditional protest.
After looking at the images I would say as a whole our groups placards were very effective and all followed the same style so fit in as one protest, it was also all very easy to work out what they were about just by reading them.
After seeing my placard in the live protest, although I am glad I hand made my placard, after looking at my designs from slightly further away, the only thing I would change is the writing in red. If I was to do it again or improve it I would use either a bigger pen or in paint to make it stand out more and be much more vibrant and visible against the white background.
