Native American Poster - After First Presentation


Hey, here's my poster.

In the image of the Native American chief, I placed names of different tribes in 25% opacity of the pms 117 color. Also, I think I need a catch phrase having something to do about tribe recognition or which tribe to do belong to? I should maybe even have some statistics or something. Also, I was thinking about remaking this and having buffalo as my focus instead with a catch phrase like "fly like a bird, run like a buffalo" or some Native American quote that has something to do with buffalo. I tried painting the buffalo with watercolor but failed.
In my finished comp, I also feel that the text needs to be broken up more and that the headline is too bold and dark. The Native American chief is a sketch with regular pen, scanned into Photoshop and then InDesign.
Anywho, please comment at will.

  1. Clare,
    Good display typeface choice. You don't have a clear concept related to the image you have created. What can you say in a headline that describes, enhances or even challenges what you are doing with the image? You have a good hierarchy in the various elements. Flush left all copy to an alignment grid. Don't stagger the copy. Your use of the second color is timid.
