Political Graphic Design examples I could analyse.

- Obama 'Hope' Poster: street art style, spoke to a new audience (youth), was accessible (social media), emotive.
- Ken Garland: his 'Nuclear Disbandment' posters. Questioned the norm, was brave and bold. Shows political design is not a new idea.
- 'Britain Stronger in Europe': failed to create and emotive experience. Was graphically very clean and pretty. Appealed to a young audience, used social media.
- Greenpeace Brexit Bus - used a different medium for protest, sent a clear message, was physical and had public interaction.
- Adbusters 'Corporate American Flag': replaced stars with corporate logos. Sent a clear message, was visually impactful. Protest without words/type.
- 'Slogans in nice typefaces won't save the human races' poster: bold and impactful, send a clear message. Popular on social media and with youth.
- Trump's 'Make America great again' baseball caps: relatable to his audience, different medium. Simple yet effective.
- Jeremy Corbyn Merchandise - Nike-lie 'swoosh' t-shirts: culturally appropriate and appealing to the young target audience, pop culture relevant. Used social media/emojis.
- 'Anonymous' Mask: iconic and memorable, easily adapted to different topics. Holds a deep and powerful message, is accessible to anyone. Popular on social media.
- Andy Warhol's' 'Vote McGovern': was very different and bold at the time, something new in political design, eye-catching and compelling.
