For the posters, I printed the images of the Royals and Elvis and then stencilled the words over the top. I decided to use stencil for the text of my posters for various reasons...
1) using paint on the stencil meant that the image underneath the text could still be seen, which would have been obscured if I had printed the text using a computer
2) the paint through the stencil leaked slightly, but I think this aided the statement of the poster, and reflected influences of the Sex Pistols album cover and anarchy
3) this was also helped by using type that I had made rather than an existing typeface, which would have made the posters look too formal, losing it's meaning
4) I also positioned the text over the images so that none of their eyes were completely covered
5) as for the images, they are all in black and white for a sense of unity, as well as to make the red text stand out
6) the images are only of their heads to reflect the postcards I found at the beginning of the project
7) I have put them in the order of Prince William, Prince Charles and then the Queen as that is the order of succession
