BYTES DECIDES! Material

You will be creating two types of campaign material. A campaign poster and campaign badges. Below are some things to think about when designing and creating both.

POSTER
Your campaign poster is the easiest way to get your message out to the masses and is a must if you plan on swamping the market and getting your party front of mind.

What appears on your poster is very important. Generally, political posters are very simple and project a mood of hope, change or determination. Below are three successful political posters. They are all very simple and striking. A snappy slogan and/or heroic image of the leader are a must.







When putting your poster together, think what mood or message you want to project to the voting public. 
Does your party have a fantastic slogan?
Will you use an image? If so, who/what of?
Most importantly, keep it simple and eye catching.

BADGE

The campaign badge is a great way for your supporters to proudly display their allegiances. As the badge is quite small, it needs to be simple and eye catching. You can just have your party slogan or logo or an image of something that encapsulates your party's message. You can include an image of your leader or perhaps make individual badges with a photo of each member of your party. 



To Create a Badge

 Basic: Use Google Draw to build your badge (a template in a google doc is here)
Advanced: Use Pixlr or another photo editing chrome app to build an amazing looking badge.

Print the badges off, cut carefully around the outside circle and send 1 person into the MERC to create your badges.
