Visual Communication Poster Development


This is the development of our final poster as we were working on the final poster we realised we weren't going to be able to do the 9 panel poster as we originally had planned due to working as a pair rather than having 4 people working, the other thing was we just weren't going to have time to get nine panels all lined up and parallel it was a nightmare to get 3 of them aligned. Although the time we would have spent working on the rest of the photos we put into editing the photos we had and putting the gif together, I'm quite pleased with the final result to say we were working with half a group.


The first thing i did was line up the photos in a 3 panel grid and centered although we thought in the end this looked to plain and it really needed something more.


After this we tried adding text and flipping the room in the first panel so they worked together as a set this improved the original in my opinion. I also rotated some of the photos slightly so they were better aligned.


After that I tried moving the text to the bottom and moving up the images slightly to give the design a more weighted look. I also edited the lighting in the rooms so they didn't look as dull. After this all we did was cut around the figures and move them on to a new layer and turn the background black and white so the characters stood out more compared to the background.
