A Conversation - Poster development

On this page and on the next page I have looked at ways in which I can censor the lyrics whether it be by adding ‘*’, changing the words completely, striking through them or just removing them from the sentence. 

Originally I started with just one word in the speech bubbles; however, I thought that if I wanted the campaign to relate to my audience I should try to incorporate song lyrics into the poster to actually show the words being used in context. The paragraph I chose to use was from the song ‘only’ by Nicki Minaj ft Drake, lil wayne and Chris Brown. 


I think that when the words were completely removed worked well, but I also liked the ones where the normal words were filled in and the bad language were shown as outlines with ‘*’ in them. I felt that this way the poster was still shocking as the words were there but they weren’t as in your face as they were censored and set back from the rest of the text.
