1. Poster 1: The main focus of this poster is the figure on the right side of the picture plane. I chose to weigh the poster in this way because when I put my three posters together this picture goes on the right side of the collage, therefore the focus of this poster should be on the right side.
Poster 2: The main focus of this poster is the writing going diagonally across the picture plane. I chose to make the text like this because it helps unify the three posters. The three Anthony Kiedis pictures are placed the way they are on this poster because it keeps the piece balanced.
Poster 3: The focus of this piece is directly in the middle of the picture place. I chose to make this poster completely balanced and even on both sides because it is the center of the three pieces.

2. Poster 1: For my first poster I chose two main photos and put them together to make my Anthony impression. I also used a microphone to show that my hero is a singer. And if that wasn’t enough to tell you who my hero is I wrote his first name along the side. On second glance I decided to add words to illustrate what side of Kiedis I was trying to convey in this poster. With this poster I am trying to communicate to the viewer Anthony’s wild, uncontrollable stage presence side. Which is expressed with the crazy background designs, graffiti and head.
Poster 2: For this poster I used lyrics that Anthony wrote as the focal point of the piece. I also used a soft simple background and a few pictures that al blend nicely to create this masterpiece. I used very soft, ‘girly’ colors in this piece because I am trying to portray Kiedis’s soft, creative side.
Poster 3: This poster is pretty simple; the focal point is the large picture of Anthony, which has been diligently Pop-Arted and it has been placed on an interesting background to make Anthony look like he is in space. I also decided to add his name in at the top because it is the centers of the three posters and neither of the other two posters have my heroes name on them.

4. I honestly don’t think I could pick a strongest poster, I love all three of them in their own way, and they are each completely unique. Poster 1 is very outgoing and bright, showing Anthony’s wild, performance side. Poster 2 express’s Anthony’s soft, creative, loving side. And poster 3 unites the three posters and helps lead into the other two pieces.

5. I am more then satisfied with all three of my posters, I have put lots of time and thought into all of them and I like them the way they are.
