Well today I went back to the library to find some more fresh images for the blog and I came across a Billboards book. For the next few posts there will be a lot of art that came from this one book. It is called Gotcha! The art of Billboard.
For this one, I found a pretty birdy staring at you. Overall, after seeing this image, and knowing that it was along a road somewhere makes mew want to see that bird and other animals there as well. I really like how they used the word CHEEP to get your attention as well. Although cheep does not portray what that particular bird would sound like. To me I think that bird would be more like a SWUAK...but cheep work because it is cheap to go to the zoo.
The graphic design element of this image is quite good. I really enjoy how the feathers of the wings are uniform and all seem to stand out quite well in the background, while the head with the eyes and beak seem to protrude in the foreground. The beak does a good job at focusing my attention down to the lettering and what they billboard is wanting to tell us. This billboard is very creative, but simple. That is what makes some of the best bilboardds

I agree - this bird doesn't look like he's say "CHEEP". More like "DINNER". My first instinct was to assume this was an airlines promotion. I'm not sure if it would have caught my eye if I was driving. Unless there were several similar ones posted every few miles.
Pretty bird? Isnt that a buzzard? lol, i like the idea though, and the image!
"Cheep" I get it. ha ha very cute!It is a cheap zoo too.
