Has anyone thought of making posters or art that people worldwide can use? I'm in the process of making a poster in photoshop right now and need some slogans or something. It will be 18" by 24" resolution. Let's discuss and we could all make some change happen.
If you have bad guys, Basiji, IRG, etc, put them in red: http://iran.whyweprotest.net/genera...opaganda-shiite-islam-green-good-red-bad.html Make Achmadenijad and Khamenei to be 'Yazid (I)', the most hated tyrant in shia history (think arab king dressed in red)
Is there a message or symbol that the protesters use? I would need the message in farsi, and the symbol to be in high resolution. And also any Iranians here have access to offset printing presses? After the poster is ready I'd upload it so anyone can download it and use it to protest or show support
Something like this would be nice: Instead of Natalie Portman, Neda. On the background, Tehran. And instead of the vendetta V, the peace V they're using...it kinda became their symbol.
Here are two small sized versions of what the poster will look like. The first one is for 8.5 x 11 paper and the second one is for the poster Just need something to put on them. they feel empty
I'm not sure what the Lion that appears in some Iranian flags means, but i think it would look good on these posters. Useful links: Flag of Iran - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia The Lion and Sun - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
love it V for victory. Nadia , anonyous, iranian flag with peace symbol on it. love it. G do a dozen different and post for feed back. GREAT stuff. G
think smaller xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx like for on millions of blogs. Banner ads, logos etc. GREAT start. G
See this artwerk thread (good stuff): http://iran.whyweprotest.net/promote-cause/1637-neda-poster.html
Some stuff I've put up. I have no problem handing over the vector and layered files for those who wish to use them Resources : SOLIDARITY
Some thoughts for you... Great design!!! Here are some thoughts: For freedom. For Iran. We stand together so we do not fall. A people united can bear any burden. Where there is truth, there is justice. Where there is justice, there is hope. Where there is hope, there is a free Iran. Till our last breath, we fight Till our last tear, we endure. We are free. We are Iranians. I hope some of those ideas work for you... Post if you want others.
Thank you, feel free to use them however you wish. Click on them to get the high resolution versions.
So, here's what I put on it so far..let me know what you think The one with "we stand together" is for 11 x 17 The other is poster size, 18 x 24
Let me preface by saying I think you've done wonderful work! But for many people protesting outside of Iran, the "Allah" symbol on the flag will probably create an issue. It's a religious symbol that many expats will not want to see. Perhaps two versions? Again, wonderful work.
what should be put instead?. I was going to put text there...but a symbol would work better. Yeah I get the whole flag deal...I just need something that is universal maybe....
Perhaps holding V for victory sign, or a clenched fist or maybe even the map of iran. Or instead perhaps you could make the flag red / white / green stripes . Not quite sure, I just know that when I go to rallies here, whenever someone has any religious symbology it seems to cause static among people
i am neda there's also this image to be used from www.iamneda.net | I am Neda "Aim for the Heart of Freedom" Design http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_sVS2KM9jBK0/SkB8c2bOlbI/AAAAAAAAAH8/dXyRNN97iek/s400/iamnedagreen.jpg
here's a design i found at www.iamneda.net | I am Neda "Aim for the Heart of Freedom" Design http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_sVS2KM9jBK0/SkB8c2bOlbI/AAAAAAAAAH8/dXyRNN97iek/s400/iamnedagreen.jpg what do you think of wearing a target?
Is it a symbol that carries "good vibes"? I've seen some pics from protests worldwide with people holding the Iranian flag with the lion in the middle of the flag.
Unfortunately, there are many things that divide Iranians, the flag is one of them. There are many Iranians who are against both the Islamic flag AND the Shahs flag. It more or less says "I support the Iranian monarchy". As far as flags are concerned, the safest thing to do is to use the red white and green stripes. If you want something in the middle, a word like "freedom" or a peace sign or a v for victory sign or something would probably be your safest bet.
That's wonderful Anyway you can offer a transparent BG png of it so we can insert it into any layout? edit: I believe the spelling is off, going to verify.
Protest Art - Need opinions ASAP Yeah I used a google translation, but it looks the same as the "freedom" on the Mousavi poster that one guy made... Maybe I should use a different word? I need opinions here people, work with me here It needs to appeal to as many people as possible, maybe I should replace "freedom" with "peace" instead?
This is how you spell freedom in farsi, this is layered file you can open in Photoshop and copy out the text: http://img193.imageshack.us/img193/8797/jhgj.png As for the word, I think freedom is one of the best to use. The people of Persia, and now Iran, have always been dictated to by some king or another. They want freedom. Freedom is a great word choice.
Would it be selfish to have a poster which shows the support of the people of Iran by anonymous and the pirate bay? Something we could use?
they probably have no idea who anonymous or the pirate bay are, and i doubt people would see the support as "good" as we think it is
this person on deviantart is having a Support Iran art contest. there is some great stuff there. http://golddragonfly.deviantart.com/
I've been trying to do something with Neda for the past few days. An anonymous friend agreed to help me. She drew a few sketches and this is what I came up with. For those of you who don't speak farsi, as she is dying the man above her repeatedly says "Neda natarse." Neda, don't be afraid.
Provocative art Ive been looking for a piece of art that has a woman,draped in the Iranian colors and laying on a map of Iran...As well a flag in the shape of Iran with a lady who is tatooed...both of these are provocative. The poster of a wall with candles stuck to it and Death to Dictator in red... Stuff like this is what sticks in peoples minds
