Our latest project is a motivational poster, there are quite a few requirements. For this project we are going to be graded on a 4 point scale. The requirements are to have 2 text layers, the 2 layers should consist of your manifesto and our personal quotes. Also 4 image layers which should consist of 3 images that symbolize us and 1 portrait of ourself. To get all 4 possible points We need to kern our text to fill the whole photoshop document. Have a triadic color scheme, visual balance, and last to have visual balance to create an artistic appeal.
The first step is to write your manifesto and quotes, I did this by looking at what others have written and wrote my own. Next, I took photos of my symbols. Then I put my text and photos in photoshop. After the I got the text in I kerned it to fit across the whole document. After, I got the photos and arranged them using visual balance. Then, I Added a color overlay to the symbols. Next, I added layer styles to my text. Lastly, I saved the document as a .JPEG and turned it in.
The biggest challenge in this project would definitely have to be kerning the text. I thought this was the hardest and most difficult because this took the most time. One of the hardest part about kerning was getting the text moved around. Also I couldn't figure out how to make the text fit across the whole page. I completed this task by asking others and checking out the focus wall. Also, by using my knowledge and Mr. Sanderls demonstrations. After a lot of moving, sizing, and kerning the text I finally got the text to fit.
