Graphic Design Admission test
My project for the admission test for Danmarks Medie- og Journalisthøjskole in 2012
My Graphic Design Admission Test
My assignment was to recreate and "copy" the following graphic designers: Cassandre (1930), Herb Lubalin (1970), Per Arndoli (1970) and David Carson (1990).
I had to look at their graphic expressions by finding their composition, shape, typography, colors and picture style... So what I should do was to create 4 posters with some specific text and to use each graphic designer's special style.
The pictures below are my final design.
Unfortunately I didn't get accepted, and I can see myself that I need a lot of excercise and experience~
