Propaganda Campaign
In this project we had to read a book called "Animal Farm." We're required to create a propaganda
campaign that addresses a contemporary issue and seeks to bring
about a positive change with regards to the issue that we choose. We had to create at least four 16"X20" original posters to represent our issue. In the posters we have to make the colors vibrant/saturated and high contrast. My group chose to do a propaganda campaign on gang violence. We also had to do research about the Russian Revolution and find out how they used propaganda to manipulate people back in the days. WE than had to make our own and use it in a positive way. We also needed to address the question "how does propaganda affect societies, and how can we use propaganda to bring about positive change?"
