Richard Dawkins
#Atheist Number 2.


Having done the Woody Allen poster it was easier to apply the same style to the Dawkins poster.
I started off with the quote

Richard Dawkins - "I am against religion because it teaches us to be satisfied with not understanding the world."



Then I began to visualise the quote by playing with intial ideas, much like the previous design. I experimented with different arrangements and effects.


I knew from the start that I wanted the poster to be portrait. This was because it's quite a long quote
which lends itself to a tall portrait format. The kerning and the leading isn't final yet but this gave me a chance to experiment with hierarchy. I suppose the focus word on this poster would be 'AGAINST and RELIGION' but at the moment SATISFIED seems to have drawn the most focus.

The banner makes a return on this design. The banner was binned on the previous design because I didn't think ir worked well with the quote itself and it felt very cliche, but this was just the phase of tryouts.


In this design I've tried adding colour and a few more elements.


I also tired out a new alignment , this time with a more structured alignment.
