As you can notice, today’s Poster Design shows a vintage style because 180 years earlier, Samuel Morse in New Jersey demonstrated the First public telegraph message sent using dots and dashes.
The style will remind you of “World Braille Day” poster number 4 and its dot representing the Braille system.
About The Poster Design #11
I was thinking about what I will do for Poster #11. So, I searched for what happened on January 11th. I noticed The first telegraph more than anything and felt it would be nice to use a Vintage Style. The first questions I asked myself were, “How will I make it?” and “What was the telegraph, and what did it mean at that time?”. I concluded that a new language must be learned by immersion. Then, I used the Morse Code for its graphics properties and translated all the informationon the poster.
Dots and rectangles are simple geometric forms, and I create them with variations, such as a bold font and a normal weight.
First Telegraph Poster Speed Art
This is the creation of the “First Telegraph” poster video.
As usual, I hope you will find some inspiration in this video. Assembling and editing videos, in addition to making the posters every day, takes a long time.
