To get our campaigns noticed, we need to be creative! This section contains some simple hints and tips to get you started with your poster, leaflet, prop and banner making.
P&Pers campaigning with props at the Secret Garden Party
Design
You don’t have to be a budding Banksy to make a good poster or leaflet - an hour or two at a computer can be enough to make a perfectly decent publication.
The design pages give you more information on the vital things to think about such as:
- getting your message right;
- creating an eye-catchng design;
- tools and techniques to use.
Prop making
In November 2006, People & Planet (with a little help from our friends) created a massive mobile art installation in the centre of London.
Making simple, striking symbols is much easier than you might think, you just need a little time and patience! Our prop making pages give you advice on:
- building big and small innovative props;
- creating sound and noise for your events;
- making the perfect P&P banner.
Street theatre
Your best bet for tips in this area is to visit the website of our friends at Street Acts, who have a wealth of knowledge and are involved in our annual national training event, Summer Gathering.
