Real World Poster Project



Real World Poster Project -


Graphic Design Time Folks - We have been hired to create Brighton High School's Annual School Play poster. This poster will be used to announce and advertise the school play, so it has to catch the eye, have the required information people need to know so they can attend the play, and all around look awesome! We will be combining Photoshop and Illustrator to create these posters, so size, design elements and images will be extremely important.

We have this week and next to work on these. As always, start with some research. What is the play "Fools" about? What are some of the images we can use? What type of font will be appropriate? What have others done before us. Google images of the posters that have been made for this play, both for the stage, and the movies.

Here is a Wikipedia page with info and a synopsis:  https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fools_%28play%29


Size: In illustrator, starting with the default "print" document should be good to get us started. Start with font.
