Foregen's first national event needs your support

[djjazzyjosha]

I work with Adobe Photoshop CS5 on my Mac. If you guys need anything just ask. I can possibly design something and convert it to PDF for your printing needs. College is stressful so allow me time to do this.

All I ask is that you define a header (attention title, and statement). Some context to place in the middle, and objects you may want on the poster.

Thanks

Edit: Supply color information.

thanks DJ great idea. I will contact you this week with what we want it to say.

Johnson & Johnson is offering grants up to $250,000.00 through its COSAT office (contact Babak Nemati). The grants are for "innovative research and development in life sciences". The deadline for abstracts on early proof of concept is January 28th, 2012, which is very close. However, Foregen should have researchers familiar with grant applications.
Best regards,
freddys.

This event should help to raise awareness among young people that an organization does exist that is trying to make foreskin regeneration a reality. It's good to talk to young people because they are more open to the truth about circumcision. In general, the older a person gets the more set in their ways they get, they become suborn and refuse to look at other viewpoints.

Have been working on some proofs for the flyers.

Just throwing it out there, but have you considered also creating an infographic to promote the event with facts about circumcision? Infographics are the growing trend in conveying information quickly...so it could be a great, postable, way to get the information across (a rough mockup is posted)

I agree fotoshopmylife. If Ian wants me to make more, I will. These are just general purpose flyers not mean't to scare the public. I wanted a sense of professionalism like other major events (peta, etc - link). Instead of coming off as a campaign ad attacking one side. But if done correctly, I agree, this could be very effective.

Looks good. Can you change the period to a question mark where it says "want your original foreskin back."? And maybe make foregen.org a little bigger so that it sticks out more.

If you're interested, there are great examples of infographics at http://visual.ly/

It's pretty great.... we as a culture like our info and like it fast, to the point and gripping.

Why is there a picture of an infant? This whole Foregen effort would benefit adults, remember. Obviously most who were circumcised in this country had it happen to them as babies, but that doesn't seem entirely relevant to what you guys are doing.

You may want to change the text so it gives more of an idea of exactly what the event is. I can't tell from just looking at it. Correct grammar would help, too.
