Early on this semester I saw some old iMacs sitting in the corner of a class room. The old G4’s with the gooseneck screens that could swivel around. The more I looked at them the more I could see a potential in them to express emotion and really be the perfect subject for some kind of photography project. I decided to incorporate that photography project into my final project for Digital File Prep.
My first thought was to do some sort of take on the “motivational” posters that we all know so well, but eventually gave up on that idea as it didn’t seem to serve much of a purpose. Instead, I came up with a campaign the old Macs would be perfect for, “Save a Mac”. This campaign urges people who have old Macs that sit in the closet to get them out and put them to a practical use. I decided to do a flyer of information, along with a set of 10 posters each with a different pose of the above mentioned iMac in black and white. While started as a fictional idea, “Save a Mac” is becoming more real every day.
