Although this poster is quite simple, its effective at getting the point of domestic abuse across to its audience. i think that this poster in particular is aimed at children at home, that is why the imagery isn't too disturbing or shocking. the photo goes well with the wording. the hand over the mouth indicates the child is keeping a secret, but the message on the poster is 'don't suffer in silence'. the use of the helpline number is also useful for children who want to speak at. i like the colours in this poster. the black and white editing makes me think of there being no hope left, but the blue lettering in a primary colour simplifies it and makes me think of the colours a young child would use. the font of the lettering is in blocks like scrabble, a game children might enjoy.
