Beginning Research


I began researching for the Social Media propaganda poster by looking at the running theme of togetherness and community that underpins many of the posters I've looked at before. I believe this spirit of collectiveness is at the heart of any social media and is what keeps it growing and developing. I like the following example because it emphasises the unity between all walks of life regardless of status, nationality (to a degree given the times) or race:



Again, it links with that same philosophy that defines what a good social media is, something that is open to all to contribute to, as well as shape its future as a community.

This is another example of a poster that I think mirrors the multinational aspect of social media today, in that it shows how countries all across the world are united in a single cause, regardless of how much distance separates them.
