Final Production

Planning: 

In this production, I tried to create a sort of stereotypical feminine look to draw the viewers eye as women are usually seen as fragile, delicate flowers that are seen in this sort of pink light. So, I took this idea, made the photography quite grungy and 2017 women and added the pink font and different pink accents to add the femininity that was missing. It is a juxtaposition.

When creating this magazine, it thought of all the miscommunicated stereotypes and expectations put on women. I also considered current affairs in terms of the political situation happening in America with women rights and the women’s march. I looked at what the world id looking like today and what it’s like to be a contemporary minority women living in today’s world. I looked at all the angles and evaluated what its really like to be an opinionated minority young women in 2017. From these views and ideas, I came up with this idea of pining women with the pink hats. This colour has followed us through history and still has a very strong, and different, meaning today.

The Pussyhat Project was launched Thanksgiving weekend to knit thousands of pink hats for those who would march in Washington, D.C. for the Women's March. The mission behind the project was to provide a "unique collective visual statement which will help activists be better heard" and to provide "people who cannot physically be on the National Mall a way to represent themselves and support women’s rights."

The Pussycat Project was one of the most significant events of the History of America, let alone 2017. It is a topic I had many opinions on and therefore I took it and analysed it and managed to sneak it into my final production.
