DOS VECES RESPONSIVE// Visual Research

This poster was made in France in 69, criticising Nixon and his stance on stamping out communism in countries like Vietnam and Cuba. Cuba and America hold the same national colours so a nice vectorised poster like this with the simple use of red white and blue is one route I could go down. I also like the roughed up nature of this poster, it adds a lot of character and emotion.
Venceremos means 'We Will Overcome'. This is a propaganda style poster with a great spot colour applied the Che's jacket.

A film of a similar nature set in Chile. This poster is too colourful for what we need but is impressive nonetheless. I like hoe the NO is painted onto the watercolour, It gives the poster a hand made touch but at the same time is very modernist in its shape and construction.

Simple use of colour for quick and easy reproduction whist enforcing Red as the colour of the revolution. Again, French and not Cuban
Visual Identity to avoid, overly colourful or overly patriotic design. The breif is to set a melancholic tone so any of this should be avoided.
