Activity 2

For the first part of activity 2 the Australian symbol I chose was a platypus. The reason behind this was that the platypus is unique to Australia, one of a kind. If a client is to push forward a product they want their audience to think that their product is one of a kind, that there isn't  anything quite like it. That is why I felt that an platypus was the ideal choice as an Australian symbol.  

 

For the second part the landscape I chose to use had to relate to the logo of the platypus in someway. So I chose a landscape involving water. The 5 swatches were chosen from the basic elements in the image, the water, the rock, the earth, the sky and the plantlife. I feel that if the platypus logo was really used, then these colours would be represent the Australian message behind it.
