Final Idea for GF Smith Poster

I think this poster layout works really well. I like that the text follows the jagged shape of the model and it looks more eyecatching rather than the text being in a straight line. The only thing I may change is the size of the lettering.
This poster fits into the theme of 100 years as the link chain of models represents a time line.
And of course to match the brief the poster will be potrait. This will look effective as the words will look like they are climbing the models. And makes it a lot more interesting visually to look at rather than the text just being placed in a straight line across the the poster.

Ideas for Poster Layout

I think the font I have chosen (Century Gothic) works well with the poster and looks simple and not too complex. However, the straight layouts of the information doesn't work well with the model so I will play about with changing the positioning of the words.






I will not be able to use these layouts though as the poster needs to be potrait. If I turned the image upright and made the text flow upwards following the shape of the models I think that would look effective and would stand out.

Photos to use for my Final Poster

For my final poster I will use one of these photos and add the text to it by using photoshop.


With this photo the text would be able to go above and below the chain of models.



With this photo I would be able to put the text below the chain model.


And with this image the text would go above the chain model.


I think this is the most successful picture and I will use this for my final poster design. I will be able to put the text either above or below the chain model.
