The following posters are based on the book “To Kill a Mocking Bird”. For Weeksville Heritage Center the
posters are for a nationwide grant that uses the book “To Kill a Mocking Bird” to encourage young people to read.
Weeksville Heritage Center approach me to work with a few selected youth from the community and surrounding
communities. I was asked to lead the a project of designing posters that was based on various aspects of
the book. The following are two sets of posters. The first set were designed in 2007 and the second set
was designed in 2008. The posters were designed to engage more people to read the book “To Kill A Mockingbird”.
POSTER ONE was designed based on the concepts of the young people. This particular poster was based on the environment of the book Maycomb County. Poster one is design based on the use of typography. We introduced the idea of using typography as a way to communicate the evironment of the community. By using color the posters also give us a sense the mood of the community.

POSTER TWO was designed based on the concept of justice being used within the book. Once again we focused on the use of typography to describe the use of how justice plays Storytelling guides your user or audience through the pages of information and virtual spaces usually to feed to its users editorial, literature, culture, medicine, and even sports. Adjusting the fundamentals of graphic design nurture the reader and users to coax the reader with interesting writing, strong photography and critical thinking using illustration and art. The element of storytelling is an expansion of virtual experience piloting culture and adaption.
POSTER THREE was designed based on the concept of racial in justice being communicated in the book.
This particular poster I worked with a graffiti artist who I really liked. The way he wrote (or tagged).
By combining the typographic treatment, texture and color were able to give the effect of a designed statement that communicates a 1930’s whites only directed statement. Set 2: 2008 This second set of posters was based on the same book “To Kill a Mockingbird”. I was once again approach by Weeksville Heritage Center to work with the students of Boys and Girls High School. In this 2008 project I worked with four students from the school. All juniors in the school. We worked on the project for a span of six to eight weeks which included a summary of the book, very basic design history and exercise. In 2008 I also worked along with there social studies teacher. We decided to focus on the occupations with the book; a student, a lawyer, a teacher and a farmer. Through a series of steps I was able to develop a cirruculum to guide the students to think the concept of the posters and how we wanted to communicate each chosen occupation within the book. 1 posters of 2008 where approached by the same standard within each occupation. By guiding the students we were able to produce posters that communicates the book “To Kill a Mockingbird” through our chosen occupation. The object was to have each poster stands on its own within a series to get viewers a new perspective on how to view the book. In conclusion, all three programs were very successful. I was able to guide and introduce high school students to graphic design that taught to them to use design to communicate and achieve functionality and purpose within typography and graphic images.
