Posters were a backbone of the Nazi propaganda effort, aimed both at Germany itself and occupied territories.
It's advantages included;
Hans Schweitzer produced many Nazi propaganda posters.
It's advantages included;
- The visual effect; as by being striking, it would reach the viewer easily and catch their attention.
- Posters were also, unlike other forms of propaganda such as film and other media sources, difficult to avoid. This was because forms of posters were put up everywhere.
- Imagery frequently drew on heroic realism; for example the Nazi youth and the SS were depicted monumentally, with lighting posed to portray grandeur.. this therefore influenced others to want to get involved and be seen in the same way.

Posters...
Posters were an important propaganda tool for the Nazis as the manipulated images helped to plant ideas in the public's mind.
Nazi poster propaganda was based on using a range of symbols, slogans, repetition, emotion and most importantly: Fear. simple enough to be subtle but effective, also so that the common man was able to understand it.
The posters were to promote;
- Germany's greatness
- The happiness the 'policies' were meant to bring
- That the Jews were as bad as the communists.
- That Hitler was a 'God' and 'savior' of Germany
- The youths were a part of the future and it was mandatory.
- To promote films; The 'Eternal Jew' for example... which you can watch via the YouTube clip attached!
Fear was well used by the Nazis because when people sense uncertainty and the worst; they are influenced into action to protect their own. While repetition meant that more people saw it as the norm' they two would follow suit. symbols like the swastika was commonly used in the posters along with the face of Hitler; 'the fuhrer'.
