HOL Ravenclaw

After spending a bit longer than you should have on looking at the old parchment in the desk, you and your friend finish with that room and keep moving on through a few more on the fourth floor. There weren’t as many rooms as you thought there would be but it is also the middle floor of the castle. Of course there’s more foot traffic here.

You and your friend took a break for dinner and discussed finding more people to help. “A recruitment drive of some sorts,” you said. The best way you figured would be making posters to hang around the school.

“Let’s head back to the Base and make some posters. Depending on how long that takes, we may even be able to squeeze in one of the last rooms before bed!” you tell your friend. When you’re both done eating, you head up and get to work on the best poster design to get people interested in helping not only you guys, but the school.

For this task, I’d like you to create a poster to attract more people to help. Please remember to keep images to 600x600 pixels.

Alternatively, you can describe in 100 words what your poster would look like and if you’d have just the one design or a few.

Please post your reply by April 30th at 11:59PM HOL Time. If you complete all of the Week Two tasks by the end of the month, you’ll receive a BONUS 10 beans/sapphires.

I'd make several different posters to put up around the castle, though each of them would be in a similar vein. The key feature of all the posters is that they'd be animated, as wizarding photographs usually are with animated sparkles, moving cleaning utensils, moving silhouettes that are doing different clean-up tasks, and changing colours. That way, they'd really catch the eye of any passerby.

As for information on it, I'd write 'Help Wanted' in large, bold letters and 'Castle Clean Up', so that people know precisely what it's all about. I'd also write about who they can contact, when and where to show up, whether they need to bring anything (no, just clothes that can get dirty), and why they should do it (any incentives).

I'd put them up everywhere in the castle and outside (protected against weather) where students regularly gather.
