Thanks a lot for feedback and valuable suggestions! I really liked the
1st version too (though it wasn't following guidelines), but I'm still
open to new ideas to redesign. Lets see where does it take us
ur first version was definitly better because it was simpler.
When u make a poster start with an eyecatcher. Work with signal colors or an
high contrast.
What I doing always is I step a few steps away from the computer and look at
it. Look what ur eyes fetch first and if they get attention on the poster.
My eye looks first to the fedora sign ;) Why the contrast brings it forward. I
like ur pattern that u added in the last 2 versions, I had a similar thing in
mind working on a shirt design. Like definitly to idea to use the state sign
of india in the font.
By this you mean the '0' in 2011?
But now is the attention from the headline gone.
Next dont overfill a poster with information. Important are the 5 W nothing
more sometimes lesser then 5
What
When
Where
Who
Why
last one, we dont need in that case. Put that information also very visible on
the poster. With so few letters as possible, so dont add "Where" or such
really written.
Ok. That sounds logical too. I think I'll drop these for sure.
The line with "MORE INFO" is secondary information. Ask u
self would u
remember the short url? No u have to write it down or stay for a while for
remembering it.
When u have a viewer taken to do this, u can write it smaller and set it to
the bottom, he will find it.
Hmmm...i'll think about this for sure.
I hope that information helps u
