New Praise Temple
Looking at the poster, I see many
different faces on the poster which gives me a warm feeling; however there are
too many faces on the poster being cut out of by the designed lines. Also some
pictures overlap some. There is space at the bottom of the poster where they
could put the pictures at instead of overlapping pictures. Under the title, it says Join Us
and it appears to be both two different sizes. The font makes the letters seem
very thin and you can’t read it. Also throughout the poster there are 5
different types of fonts. The sparklers between the two
couples at the bottom of the page could have been moved from between them and
moved to underneath the main title. Or they could have put many sparklers
around the title to bring more attention to the title. I actually just noticed
that where the man is standing, there are words that are being cut off. This is
an extremely bad edit. The man shoes are also cut off. I know how he is leaning
over, it is made to look as if he is leaning on the title but they could have
moved the title over a little bit over so that they words wouldn’t be cut off.
I don’t understand why his shoes are cut off. You can see the outline of his
shoes only.
Take it by the Youth Conference
This poster is extremely hard to read. The poster is
extremely washed out and it looks as if it is very old. I’m not sure if the
creator had wanted the poster to look this way. With the
poster being faded, the text on the poster is very hard to read. The text color
is white and the background picture has black and white coloring. The words
look blended with the background. In the middle of the poster, the background
is red and the text is also red. The two colors should not be used together. Also with
the date being on the top, it is not fitted on the page. They tried to make it
crocked and fancy when they made it off of the page. If they wanted to do that,
they could have made it work by turning the date to the side of the page. When
reading the box, the title of the box says “Rehearsal” which is spelled
terribly wrong. It also does not give any detail of what the event is about. The poster has a lot of empty space. They could have either
made the font bigger to take up room, the subtitle should not be bigger than
the main title, which it looks it. The color of the text should have been a
darker color to be with that background. If I could change this up I would take
the title and make big that that is reaches both ends of the paper. I then
would make the name of the church and the address smaller but it would match
the size the time. The subtitle I would
do the same as the main title, have it big enough it would reach both sides.
Now moving to the middle of the poster, I would change the color from red to
maybe a yellow or orange. The red the person put up is terrible. It looks like
dried up blood. The text in the box would be red instead of the dark orange it
is now. The picture would be a lot bigger. I would have the edge of the picture
would reach close to the text. The picture would also be more slanted. I know I
discuss how much I hate the background but I would change the background to a
different music background.
Worship Without Walls
This poster is very plain and boring. This flier does give
too much detail of what the event is about. This
poster just has the title and the date of the event with no description. There
is a lot of blank space on the poster which could be used for a small
description of the event. In the description they could have if it is free or
not, where the event is being held, and the time of the event. None of that is
on the poster which is crazy. Instead of using a large picture they could have
used a small picture with more details. The title has an error in it. It says
“1st Annual” which is incorrect grammar. There can be no 1st
Annual, because you don’t know if there will be another event the following
year. I would recommend a small font and a smaller image. If I were
to change this I would keep the font of all of the text. I think that the text
is large and fancy enough to catch a person’s eye. However I would have the
mirror effect of the main title and have the title falling in the background. I
would then add a couple of twinkling stars around the title. I don’t know why
but the twinkling stars can make an event seem classer. As stated before there
is no such thing as a “1st Annual” event according to AP Stylebook
2014. That doesn’t even make sense as it is. So that would be taken out. I
would add a logo or slogan to the pictures, to fill in the extra space. I would
also change the background to a brighter color. The dark red color darkens the
photo to the point where it makes the event seem dull and boring. Since the
woman’s shirt is black and white, I would do a bright color background like a
yellow color. The yellow will be warm and welcoming. And there is suppose to be
a Christian event, the red background indicates the devil. Also since this is a
religious event, why not add an angel or a halo. I think that would bring more
of a warming feeling. I love boarders so I would add a blackboard around the
poster. The boarder I would do will be a thick boarder with a thin boarder
following it. It might look too professional but it will give it some type of
fun look to it. I said it before that there’s no details of the event so that
is a must to add. But since the person picture is so big, I would add a small
description of her saying why she is a guest speaker and a little bio about
her. I would put her bio in a fancy box with a font size and color that would
be easy to see.
HALLOWEEN
This poster is also boring. There is only one image that is
used, for an event that is supposed to be used for I’m assuming for trick and
treating. The font size looks like they used the normal text size. They didn’t
use any spooky or fun fonts that would make kids want to come to their event.
They have listed free candy, hotdogs and donuts being there so they could have
posted some pictures of all things or two of food. The pumpkin background
picture gives it a formal look and not a Halloween theme. Having a different
background such; as a spooky pumpkin or children playing with pumpkins. Also
they put any text across the pumpkins which gave a lot of empty space. There
they could have added more text such as:
-how much
food will cost
-who is the
main public
-the year
should be on here just incase the letter never gets taken down
-the zip
code and city
I also think that a little description of two locations. It
doesn’t say what place of establishment the two places are. If I were to redo this poster, everything would be redone!
Okay lets get started. So as said before the background of the 3 pumpkins is
just too boring. There needs to be something spooky and scary since it’s a
Halloween theme event. I would want whatever background I choose to be black,
to give it a spooky theme. I would want to maybe have a glow-in-the-dark
pumpkin with scary teeth. I would then use the chalkboard font with the duster
effect with the title. The font is a very fun font. (Safe Night Out is the title
I’m referring to) Underneath the title I would put in the regular chalkboard
font, “Presented by Buffalo United Front, House of Masters and East Delavan
Block Club.” I then would put the date of the event titled to the side from 6pm -9pm.
If they wanted to put dusk (which they did) I would look up the time the sun
usually sets around the time of the event. People with busy schedules want the
exact time the function will begin and the same for when the function will end.
Like stated before I would add pictures of kids, but I would add pictures of
kids who have on a mask and who is trick or treating. I would add two photos (3
at the most). Then I would list the food that would be available with probably
pictures or icons. Since this is a children’s event, parents would like to know
prices of things, so I would give one price followed by the word “up.” (ex.
Prices start at $4 and up) I see two logos at the top of the page; I would put
those at the bottom of the page. I almost forgot the most important thing the address.
I would put the address across from the date slated.
Trinity District
Looking at the poster gave me a headache. The
background picture is too many different colors. It’s a memorizing picture of a
space however it doesn’t belong on a poster because you can not properly read
the words on the poster. If they wanted to do use this background then they
could have used last words on this flier. However since they did use this
background, I would suggest them using a solid color. Or they could have used a
black color picture. With the black background, there’s chance that it would be
easier to read, especially with the white color text. I also would take away
some text because I feel like a lot of text could be removed. If they wanted to
use that text, there is open space in the middle of the flier that could have
been filled. I suggested for some text to be taken off because since there is
so much text, the text size is small to read. They could take away the bible
quote, the large logo and shrink the dates of the events, to as smaller font.
The pictures all the guest speakers could have been colored photos instead of
black and white. The black and white doesn’t make the photos pop out of the
poster. Instead it blends the pictures in the mess background. If I were to
change this up, I would keep most of the font. The font does stand out to
everyone. I however would change the background of the poster to something that
isn’t so distracting. The galaxy is not a good background picture. Its just way
to much. Since there is so much information on this poster, there needs to be a
solid color. Or they could have found an image that displays to the side or
middle such as a cross, or a picture of Jesus,” Since they have a woman who
image is larger than the others, they could have taken her image and made it
the main background. They could have put it to either side of the poster or in
the middle. Wherever they decide to put the image, I would put a small
description on her. I would change the font to a color that would be easy to
read. If they really wanted the scripture, I would condense the size and make
it small. Its too big and it takes up too much room. I would have the dates of
the event to the side of the page along the left side of the page. In the
middle of the poster I would put the location. Now to the people at the bottom,
there pictures need to be in color instead of black and white. If they wanted
their pictures to stay black and white then the main lady shouldn’t be in
color. Everyone needs to stay the same.
