Final Rhetoric Poster

Overall I would have to say I am satisfied with the turnout of my poster. Aside from it curdling (giving it that crumpled look) sometime between Saturday night and Monday morning, and it being cast aside to the dark wooden door (which further highlighted the flaws in the piece) and later ripped down and just stuck to the side, I would say everything went pretty well.

My concept for the poster was based on the fast tempo of the Eldar Djangirov Trio's music. I attempted to communicate this by using personification of piano keys and to make them "run" off the edge of the poster. The change of scale in the keys could also fall under the hyperbole category. The legs of the keys also resemble music notes which is also a bit of metaphor.
