Freak Show Final
Here's my final draft of my Freak Show poster. I made changes according to the critique and like the way it came out. The text is easier to read on the actual poster.

Freak Show Rough
The target Audience for my poster is school age children, ages 6-12.
My intent for this poster is to create an image for the Freak Show that portrays intrigue and encourages curiosity and acceptance. I want to show that although it can seem scary, it presents a great opportunity for learning how to view things in a different light. I chose April Greiman because I liked her use of photography and text. Her images can be bright and a bit more playful, which might translate to the target audience well.

I made 10 roughs but the one I'm using is a combination of 3 of the roughs. I scanned in the roughs layered on top of each other so try to look past the clutter.
Here are some examples of April Greiman's work that I used for inspiration.
