Brief: To produce a typographic poster relating to something that is occuring in the world, relate 20 songs and 20 facts to this and incorporate into your chosen topic.
I decided to base mine on: The decrease in bees!
Bumble bees are slowly dying out, which would result in no fruit and vegetables, no animals, and then no humans! The world would be a dark dark place, and many of us do not realise the vital part that bees play within our lives.

I was interested on how bees are dying - i felt this would be portrayed strongly by using type. The point size of the type has been reduced as the text flows down the page. This is to signify that bees are running out. The smaller the text the harder it is to see. 

To portray this message further, all of the B's have been highlighted yellow. One of the colours that make up the bees appearance. Again, the opacity of the yellow has been been reduced as the type flows. To highlight this even further, the B's have been removed completely.
