The one aspect that was letting my entire poster down was the title and body copy. I generally am not very good at that area of design so I sourced some type inspiration to help me get started.
From these I like the simplicity of the semi-bold san serif fonts using basic heirachy. I also want to look at the bleeding of the page aspect to create a little more dimension to the title. I went through and downloaded various fonts and played around with them on Indesign. Through the process I decided to eliminate the body copy and just have a title and subheading as the extra words to deal with was make things more complicated for myself.
After about ten iteration I finally came up with a concept I was happy with. I decide to stick with simplicity and didn't go too much into the bleeding off the page idea.
Unfortunately, after printing my poster off full size I discovered that the red printed out a lot darker to what it had printed out previously. I did make sure I printed it off earlier to give me enough time to get it reprinted if this exact thing happened, however, I got caught up with my other assignment and ran out of time. All in all, I am happy with how it turned out.
YAY FOR BEING DONE!!
