Final Project
Des 16 Final Project: Legacy Exhibit Poster
Assigned: March 3rd
Due: March 19th 6pm
Combine Typography and Imagery using Photoshop and Illustrator
Project Description:
Create a poster for a museum, performing arts/appropriate venue featuring a leader in the arts or sciences who is no longer living. The poster should reflect the legacy of the life’s work of the subject as a retrospective exhibit in a museum of art, history or science or a presentation of their work & legacy. It may be a national, international or smaller exhibition or performance space. Use color in the poster.
The imagery in the poster will be assembled in Photoshop with a minimum of three images, one of which must be of the subject. Blend or combine the images, don’t just place block images.
The final composition will be assembled in Illustrator and all text must be created in Illustrator. Typeface choices must be from our design standard type listing. Demonstrate refined typography skills with effective typeface selection, size, style/weight, color, kerning, leading, letter spacing and vertical spacing. Your design choices should support the theme and demonstrate clear visual hierarchy and use of grid alignments.
Answer the questions “Who? What? Where? When?” for the exhibit, presentation or lecture. The poster should reflect the nature of the subject and appeal to the target audience of those who do/do not know about the person featured. Demonstrate your knowledge of gestalt principles and the grid and use them to unify all poster elements.
Research:
You must know about your subject and event in order to design an effective poster. Utilize research and the design process.
Technical Requirements:
Print and mount your poster vertically or horizontally as a trimmed 16 x 20 inch print mounted on a black 20 x 24 inch matte board (approximately). Good craft is an important part of the finished project.
