#1

 In this poster, first of all, I colored the page with a dark red blood color to represent violence that is taking place. I then imported the handcuff into the page and aligned and made it big to make it bold. The reason why I put handcuff because of how people are silenced from being able to defend themselves and held captive in their own land. It is to show how they're imprisoned in their own land in a way while not being able to fight back their land.  I used Franklin Gothic fonts to write "IT DID NOT START ON OCT 7TH" to show that this conflict had started way before around 1947. Underneath the "IT DID NOT START ON OCT 7TH", I put "END THE GENOCIDE". In between the two hands, I put "CEASE FIRE NOW!" except I made "NOW!" a bright red color to show the bloodshed. Afterwards, I drew the Israel and Palestine flag on the arm. I would say one challenges I faced was aligning between the image and text. Between the "CEASE FIRE NOW" and the handcuff, I had a hard time make the balance, such as aligning it perfectly. I didn't know how to geometrically align the text between the arms. In he end, I did my very best into make it align in the hope that it creates a minor issue.

In this poster, I colored the page with a dark gray color. I then imported the Israel map and draw it with the pen tool with the blood red color. Afterwards, I used the Palatino Linotype to write "END THE WAR.END THE HUNGER" on the bottom of the poster. On the left side of the map, I vertically wrote "ISRAEL". On the right side of the map, I vertically wrote "PALESTINE". On the top of the poster, I wrote "1947-2024". One challenge I faced is finding the right color for my poster, it took me some time researching what is a ideal background poster for this design until I came upon a dark gray color. Another challenge was vertically making the Israel and Palestine text, I took me some research and some time to figure out how to make a word vertical instead of horizontal. In other words, my major challenge overall was that I was overthinking and was complicating over a simple technique when the solution to the technique tend to be right in front of us.

In this poster, I colored it with a pale blue. I used Arial Narrow Bold font to write down "GIVE PEACE A CHANCE" on the bottom of the poster as well as "1947-2024" to suggest the timeline. On the top, I wrote the title called "TWO STATE SOLUTION: A CENTURY OF STRIFE". In the middle I drew the Israel/Palestine map along with drawing a blue bird in the middle of the map. On the left side, I drew Palestine flag  and on the right side, I drew Israel flag. One challenge I encounter is figuring out how to place my drawings around, I drew good drawings but I didn't know how to place it together. In the end, I overcome this issues by seeking help from my peers in which I was able to figure out the problem to my solution.
