DAPA Project

25. March 2010 by Algernon.

This is a poster that I’m doing for the command DAPA onboard USS Dwight D. Eisenhower. DAPA is Drug and Alcohol Program Advisor. The DAPA chief basically promotes drug and alcohol awareness. There are several slogans about the ship that promotes responsible drinking. This poster adds my slogan to that collection. My slogan is ‘The bridge to liberty risk is irresponsible drinking’. I was first approached because they needed pictures taken and the media department was really busy. I am know as the guy with the nice camera onboard. After doing the pictures, someone else did a poster. I absolutely hated the poster. It had my photos on it and basically made my work look bad. So I decided to do my own poster, not by anyones intruction. I just decided to work on something a little more appealing. After showing the poster to the DAPA chief, she loved it. So, now I’m working on another project for DAPA. I got the idea to do something for the ship from Jim Bryant, who is a former sailor now photographer. Those of you who are on DPS know who I’m refering to. Thanks Jim for all of your advice! I look forward to more of your advice…
