LUCHA FUTURE.
This is the website I am linking my project to: Lucha Libre . Lucha Future is a a company who put on mexican wrestling performances all over the world this is why i have chosen to link my work to this company. I also chose this company as I really like the style and design of the website and the branding, its playful and illustrated, which also links my mail shot to their style quite well.
MEXICAN POSTER.
This is a Mexican poster I came across on the wall of my work. I really enjoy the simple use of colour and imagery, and the way the stock is the most bold thing but yet the rest of the poster is more eye catching. Its interesting to see a genuine mexican poster and see what fonts/style and layout has been used.
NATION OF SHOPKEEPERS
This is a design I came across on a flyer for nation of shopkeepers. I really like the attention to detail in the illustration and the hand drawn effect of the first font. I'm not so keen on the sencond font as it just makes me think of halloween. It's interesting to see this piece of work as they have chosen similar colours to me but used them in a different way.
MEXICAN WRESTLING
This is a youtube clip i came across of mexican wrestling. After my crit I reaslied I hadnt done the most obvious thing and watched mexican wrestling, I just assumed that it would be like american wrestling. After watching this clip I realised that it is more of an art, the moves that they are doing are like what you would see in a dance show, except two big men. I was genuinely impressed after watching and have decided to take on a different spine of Lucha Libre, looking at how it is mis interperated and showing what it really is.
This is the QR code I will use if I choose to link my work back to the youtube clip

TASK 3 MODERNISM / POSTMODERNISM
I have chosen this album art by Barney Bubble (1978) for my postmodernism piece. I feel this reflects the postmodernist movement as it is playful and doesn't make a lot of sense. It is an image of a face made up from different objeects, the objects used are not being used for there true function which is another quality of post modernism. It is a collage of images and uses a sans serif font both of which again are popular for the movement.
For my Modernist piece I have chose this book cover design by Barbara Kruger (1985). Although I am aware her work is seen as part of the postmodernist movement I feel This piece could pass for modernist/ features modernist traits. It has the use of Photography which was a new modern technology, use of modern slant to text and also the san serif font. There is bold simple use of block colour, and the image makes sence and relates to the text.
