This poster is being stuck up around Los Angeles in a guerilla campaign to brand Obama as a socialist. The poster is incredibly visually powerful, and for that reason it has recieved huge amounts of media coverage world wide. It doesn’t really make logical sense, in the respect that the Joker (from Batman) was not a socialist.
But things don’t always have to make sense to have an impact.
A new spot from the Labour Party promoting their Copenhagen climate change pledge and it’s a good’n! In terms of the style, I like the use of the circle theme throughout the advert and the tone of the message and the music is upbeat.
This shows that the Labour Party can be positive, can produce decent communications that don’t cost the earth (mind the pun) and that it can’t keep using their financial state as an excuse for churning out rubbish.
Labour supporters are campaigners at their core and it’s therefore unsurprising that the Labour government’s communications are at their best when they’re on the front foot on an issue which they sincerely care about.
