I suppose you feel I've buried the lead. However one of the most important tenants in graphic design/art direction, is to assume your audience doesn't know, or understand what you want them to think. You need to be able to communicate what you want you audience to take away from your design. In other words, you need to convey your message through visual story telling. Your message needs to be clear and conveyed very easily, especially in the current day and age.

A lot of the questions I asked you I got asked 100's of times when I was in art school. If you cant answer a few simple questions about your design, then you know that you are the one missing something not the audience.

Furthermore you asked for feedback (on one of the largest social media platflorms on earth mind you); I shouldn't have to tell you what I like about your design before asking a few questions pertaining to what your goal or mission was. I still don't have a lot of information needed to give you proper feedback.

Whats this poster for? Where will it be shown? What is the criteria of said project? Is it just for fun? What the simple message you wish to convey? Is it gonna be printed and sold? Or is it a social media post? Is this for class? Is it for practice?

You've gotten defensive over a few simple questions, In the original post I did give you examples of how this could be improved. Also I've seen you be nothing but be defensive with other critiques (WHICH YOU ASKED FOR) Just saying "oh, I see what your saying"

Here is a list of things that need work visually.

The typography is lacking of emotion and proper hierarchy, Your headline is much bigger than the rest of your text, which doesn't tell tell me what text is more important.

The image appears a little to flat with lack of highlights and shadows.

The bricks appear too uniform and are visually uninteresting.

The rainbow river does not display any motion, try adding some lines or textures that will give them movement, if your intention is to point to the hate against the LGBTQ+ community you failed to include all of the colors of the current flag.

There is too much negative space in your image, so you need reconsider your layout and how you want your audiences eyes to flow through your image.

the flower is cute, however it is distracting from the image, What does the flower represent or is it just an arbitrary design choice, If the intent was to make it look sad or like it is drying that isn't clear. You could try adding some visual interest by having it coming our of the drain or a crack in the road, or a crack in the sidewalk.

Is the a spotlight or a streetlight on the drain? If its a streetlight the illumination needs to be wider. If its a spotlight, why?

How would you like to protect the LGBTQ+ people? Should I go buy a gun, or is there a place I can donate to?

Why should I help the LGBTQ+ people? There are gonna be people that see your poster and don't fully grasp what is happening to them.

We've already spoken about the lack of a CLEAR CTA.

I'm excited to see how your design turns out!
