Billboard Inspirations


*Note: It is very hard to find regional billboards however I will keep an eye out and post anything I find
I created a board on Pinterest for Billboard inspirations in preparation for when I create my own billboard in a few weeks time. From the billboards I have chosen and looked at I have decided that for my billboard I will need to follow three major conventions that all billboards (even the ones I didn't like) have chosen, which are: Audience - the billboard needs to attract it's audience perfectly in order to make it effective this means I must understand my audience in order to achieve this. Simplicity - the best billboards are the simplest which makes sure that the images or words included in the billboard don't become an eyesore which may take away meaning and effect from the billboard. Finally, colour - depending on the colours and images chosen depends on the feeling the billboard gives and the emotions it possesses and therefore passes onto the audience. The colours must give the correct imagery to attract my audience.
In order to make sure I achieve the colour goal I have done research on the colour psychology which can be found on my blog HERE
In order to make sure I achieve the audience goal I have done a survey on 20 teenagers in my local area which can be found on my blog HERE

  1. Have another look at this to make sure the billboards you are using are appropriate for your task.
