Learning Activity 13: Poster Design

Using MS Word or Photoshop, choose one of the following quotes and design a layout based on it. Size is A4, - landscape or portrait. Just type only - no illustrations. Use any typeface families and any colours.

Experiment with different sizes of type. Break the quote down into words and emphasise the words that need it. See if you can convey the meaning of the quote in the type.

"Tell me the past and I will recognise the future" Confucius (511 - 479 BC), Philosopher China

The quotes should determine how you manipulate the type - use the type confidently, experiment and have fun.

Either print it out and take a photo or even easier, take a screenshot, place into a photoshop and save it for the web and submit it via the Assessment Tool and publish it to your Flickr CertIII Media Set with a comment on how and why you arrived at the design.
