OUGD505 - Ban guns in america final pages

1. What print method should i use for my Ban Guns in America colouring pages?

2. Should I keep the same stock for the colouring pages and screen prints?

3. Should my colouring pages be printed in black or in red to follow/match my screen prints?

4. Is it appropriate for the kids?

5. Do you think the illustrations and quotes in the colouring pages are too random? Do they work well with the screen prints?

1. I think cheap stock, basic copier paper.

2. No colouring books need to be thinner, kids won’t appreciate the thick textured stock, It will be harder to colour in on.

3. Black let the kids add the colour

4. Yes and no the text is too much for a child simplify, less text as possible 

5. yes a little some are irrelevant to gun crime such as the ‘Love yourself’ thing.

*The screen prints are really good.

I feel your target audience is aimed at children not students. Students possibly wouldn’t be interested in colouring unless the images were less childish, like maybe more realistic illustrations.

1. Basic paper then allows someone to draw on hem easy (NO GLOSS etc).

2. Colouring books are normally cheap, so high quality thick stock shouldn’t be used.

3. Black as if a kid wanted to use red it wouldn’t be helpful. 

4. The colouring pages are appropriate but the screen prints aren’t very child friendly (Unless they’re not for children).

5. Some of the images and quotes aren’t relevant to gun crime, i don’t really see the colouring book working with the project as children would just colour the images and move on to the next without looking at the type. For the colouring book to work the images and quotes would have to be more shocking.

1.Print method should be something cheap to reproduce - Maybe just laser printed.

2. I think a thinner stock would be better for a colouring book.

3.Black - Red would muddle up the colours when colouring in.

4. I feel like bigger imagery and less text would be more appropriate as a colouring book for kids.

5. They are a bit random, feels like a bible entry.

Maybe focus more on the adult audience as they are the ones who vote and make the choices. Maybe aim at families as a whole?

Screen prints could be refined, less text and bolder imagery - Posters should be read in 3 seconds, screen prints in A3 too? Just some ideas!

1. I would digital print for the colouring book, but experiment with different stock and materials to see which of them works best for for colouring in. 

The research is good and so are the designs but do all the images in the colouring book match with the theme of ban guns in America?

2. Stick to the black and white for the colouring book as it could be difficult to colour on red ink. Include more illustrations which show guns and the ban for the same.

Try to look into how you could link the screen prints and colouring pages together, as they look like two different things right now.

1.Colouring pages be on a thinner and cheaper stock.

2. Black - Still can see ink and is more friendly on the eye.

3.Maybe some of the text is too ‘deep’. Could be a little inappropriate for kids.

I don’t think the screen prints are appropriate for children, therefore think about who your overall audience is as the typefaces and some imagery considered i wouldn't say is appropriate.
