Colby - Poster & Web Page Final






Jaezar Soriano - Project 3 Poster and Webpage


Hi everyone. Here's my poster. It's supposed to have two parts. One is the bold obvious message advertising my book, and the second is a subtle representation of the evolution of type in the background.

Couldn't decide which to print; the top I think more obviously matches the layout of my book, but I think the bottom is more interesting.

I want to emphasize the X on the word Experimental, because most of the the time you won't know the result of an experimenting project, until you did it.
The poster background and the web page's X use halftone screen dots as a the pattern, that will make the association with print typography, since before digital area, the major study of the typography is largely based on the printing media. I use 2 color according to the rule "the simpler the stronger", because I think the poster's main purpose is give an strong and fast overview, servers as one of the book's supplemental medias.
The entire layout is trying to point out that experimental work will lead your achieving the better Inspiration when you design an artwork, although most of the time your will not preset a result or your main goal.

I couldn't upload pdfs because there were errors in uploading. I experimented with blue, black and red text. I think red looks better because it goes better with my book which has a red cover. I would also like to know if "children's book typography" placed on the bottom or top of the page is better and if the girl's silhouette is better scaled smaller or larger. I think children's book typography goes better on the top and the silhouette is better larger. I think my choices give a more complete feel to a poster. The last poster is my choice.

A little late to be posting this, but here are some of the different ideas that I was working with while working on the poster. 

Close to final poster...ha.




So, I decided to use more color and incorporate cyan as the railroad tracks and "tunnel" so to speak. I used more texture and had a separate more legible paragraph that is informative, displaying connection between the modernization of the printing press and steam engine. I added more boxcars and scaled the train to a larger size.
