Motivational Poster


The requirements for the motivational poster are to have your manifesto, your personal quotes, three symbolic images and a self portrait of your face. For design requirements you need to have both of your text layers kerned across the page so that there aren't any blank spots or and holes. You need to have 2 accent colors and 1 dominant color to make it look visually balanced. Lastly you would need to have blending options and adjustment layers on all of your 4 images.


 The first thing I did to make my motivational poster was I put the photo's in the photoshop document and then I started to write my motivational quotes and my manifesto then you start kerning. Kerning is adjusting the space between the letters to make it visually pleasing. For the kerning you have to make the text look like a blanket completely covering the page. Then you adjust the colors of the pictures to match your triadic color scheme. The colors that I picked were blue, yellow, and a red pink color. After that you have to pick the colors for your text layers to make it pop out and so you can see it better.


 My biggest challenge when we did this project was I didn't finish it I had the text layers to color then I would be done but I didn't have enough time to finish it so I had to turn it in as it was. Luckily Mr.Sanderl gave us some extra time to finish kerning the next day so I figured that it would be a good time to finish up the coloring of the text layers and for now I am still figuring out what color I should do it (it's so complicating but so much fun). Overall in my finished product looks pretty good to me. :)
