4 Different Ideas / Concepts

 Idea 1: Money. 26 Million dollars spent of nz citizens tax. Is it really worth it? The quick idea of juxtaposing a classic dollar sign with the nz flag does not really give the reader the idea clearly enough until you contrast with the type. If I was to angle this way, I would definitely have to come up with more ideas to get the message across, using the pathos, logos and ethos idea. At the moment its very bland.


Idea 2: Identity. The flag being us New Zealander's identity, Also combing two images to give a message. How does the message get across? an idea of 'its in our DNA.' Contrasting with the type outlines that identity is a very important aspect of us as New Zealander's and that it should be protected, not changed. Also a very basic design concept that can be improved to portray identity as an idea. After talking with lecturers, a suggestion was to maybe use my own finger print, or to combine images that represents NZ as a whole. Kiwiana?




 Idea 3. History. Very basic use of type and image combined to tell a message. 'Killing History.' This being my least favourite as it does edge toward America over NZ having a glock. Maybe a NZ war gun would be more appropriate.




 Idea 4: Soldiers Emblem. Our soldiers died under our union jack 4 star flag. Almost ripping them off by changing it. Combining a close up of a soldier with a tear represented by the NZ flag - indication of a sense of upset, wrong, unmoral. We respect these soldiers so leaving the flag is a major icon of them. If I was to edge toward this idea, use of actual NZ soldiers may be more appropriate.
