Say No To Drugs PSA Poster

My topic was about Say No To Drugs. I designed a poster that gives a perspective of the consequences of what happens when you take drugs. The poster explains how you in most cases drugs kill people. There are facts that support the side-effects of taking drugs but its what we think that can change our mind. Like it shows how even while he was half unconscious, he's still smoking. This poster is just showing how if you don't do drugs you just have health problems because of your choice you make.

I learned how doing drugs won't make you better but worse. For an example, how it effects the way our brain corporates and function. It makes us extra old if you start drinking at a young age. But people still want drugs because its stressless and they don't know death until they are at that point. Also, how if we acknowledge the results of taking drugs at a young age, we are likely not going to take it.

The interesting facts I used from the website was how taking pills slowly kill you drinking alcohol destroys the inside of your body. Also, how you can die from doing drugs but sometimes you don't care. There could be tons of medications invented to save people but just us that makes the decision to make a change or not. Its only beneficial and helping to those who take drugs or plan on to take drugs. In conclusion, drugs aren't necessary in life but should be allowed to use for because we can live and live without but it depends on the situation.

My rough sketches and ideas are here. They are the structures of my final poster. I chose the design on the far right to base off on my actual poster. The sketches help brainstorm what I should draw like an outline for a essay. The designs are designated to explain how drug abuse could harm the person taking it. It can be taken anywhere and any place which makes a mess.

My finished PSA informs and educates how people can live without drugs. It also explains in the poster how each of the drugs effect your body. It gives an atmosphere of how people can take drugs in anywhere like possibly a room alone. Your life span is short but with drugs its shorter. We are in control of our own actions but some just chose something that kills them which becomes a addiction.
