Initial manifesto research and ideas

http://www.antidesignfestival.com/disinformation/?page_id=4


Above, is a selection of different manifestos that I have gained inspiration from after writing my initial manifesto and design philosophy. After writing my initial ideas down I chose to look at how I could display my manifesto and the certain types of formats that would be useful, I felt that from reading the manifestos on the computer, most of them had a professional quality and were easily legible. Most were done in a clear typeface and were commonly in black text on a white background making it easily seen. However on viewing this, it came to mind that the reason for this maybe due to how in manifestos things are seen as clearly black and white and there is a right and wrong was of design, so people can not create bad design according to the author of the manifesto. That is why I feel in making my manifesto it should be on a more personal background and possibly the use of coloured text may add to this or either a coloured background, for the text to be displayed upon. In addition to this i feel initially the text does not have to be so regimented due to personally i am not regimented in my work of style of design. I feel that different typefaces may suit this style better and also bring up a more emotional style of manifesto as many of the ones above are however seen to be very business like but by bring a more personal style it may make the piece stand out
things to consider: typeface, backdrop/ground, colour and the format it can be reproduced on.
