About my project

"For my Final pieces I created a series of Data theft related posters. I took inspiration from a company Varonis which had posters on cyber-crime. I replicated this by making posters which were well-known movie posters. I used posters from movies such as The Shining and Jurassic Park.

I was able to manipulate these images and make them match my theme for example, for the Jurassic Park I was able to remove the famous dinosaur silhouette and replace it with a silhouette of a hacker I was able to make it match with the moon by using artistic filters and lowering the opacity which made it possible for it to blend in well.

I also changed the slogan and name of the film. For other posters I took inspiration from the Anonymous Mask which related to the theme of data theft as Anonymous is an infamous hacking group known worldwide and their mask as a symbol is also a very well known.

The mask was able to be used on multiple occasions during my final outcomes as I made two posters which related to the hacking group. I used the mask to create a poster which showed what the group stood up for and how powerful they were by showing figures of the anonymous group standing over world leaders and presenting images of police brutality to show what information anonymous had over the world leaders. I took inspiration from the Avengers Infinity War poster and used font which matched to it with a different name relating to my project."
