Poster

Fitness For Purpose And Experimentation

Idea 1This was our first idea for our poster. We used Photoshop to create this poster. We played around with the different tools, including the brightness and hue/saturation. This made the the background darker and fainter so that the text can be easy to read. We also adjusted the exposure, highlights, shadows and contrast to experiment with different colours.

Idea 2For this second idea, we used the same background image but instead, we edited it on the software ‘Picmonkey’. We added light streaks and adjusted the blend mode to ‘multiply’ to change the colour and effect of it. We also increased the saturation and light trails to make it have a 3D glowing effect. We thought that this design wasn’t as good as the first one so we experimented more by coming up with more ideas.

Idea 3For this design, we made the background darker and brighter so that the colours stand out and makes it more eye-catching. We made the text gold so it looks more appealing. We also added bokeh and changed the size of it to the size we thought looks best. Then, we decreased the bokeh present and made it focus on the title so it looks neater and allows the text to be seen more clearly. This bokeh effect also creates a spotlight effect on the title, which makes it stand out.

Overall, we created these 3 posters with the same background but different effects and edits to experiment. This allows the client to have a wider range of posters to choose from.

In the end, the client preferred our first idea.
