Eh, changed my mind about the logo featured in this poster. I don't really like it anymore. Now that I'm revisiting it after being away from it for a few days, I notice that the curly designs on the sides look silly. I will work on revising this.
Love your color scheme and font choices! Looking forward to seeing your update if you do decide to change the logo. My eyes want to logo to be placed differently, or maybe wanting the logo a bit bigger. Seems a little disconnected from the rest of your poster.
How are you creating your silhouetted objects? They add a nice touch and break up the material. Great white space.
Your poster is very clean and crisp; I like that. I also agree with Caitlin, I really like your color scheme you have going. My eyes immediately went to the silhouetted objects/writing, so I would suggest making your logo more pronounced (whether that's through making it bigger or a different placement). It sounds like you are set on changing your logo, but if you don't, I would like to see the brown color incorporated in the poster somewhere because right now the colors seem somewhat distant from your logo (besides the blue).
I definitely agree with both of you!! Thanks for your comments, I will work on making some changes. :)
And to answer your question, Caitlin, I created the silhouetted images in Illustrator with the Pen tool, then clicked and dragged the pen path straight from Illustrator into Photoshop. Then I right-clicked on the layer to get to "effects" and gave each image a color overlay.
Great poster Raleigh, nice clean use of white space which makes printing easy when formatting for bleeds. I like the logo and the curly things dont look silly, but thats your call on what you put on your final poster. The sentences next to the icons on the poster are very casual - which is great if thats the feeling of the store, you'd know better than I. "still carry non-ethanol fuel" is a little awkward at first read.
I like how you capitalized key words to draw attention. Nice draft!
I am anxious to see how you change your logo, if that is what you are still planning on doing. I like how you have incorporated the colors from the banner section of Grand Re-Opening to the bottom section of the icons and sentences. The one thing my eyes kept noticing was that your pictures are all centered with the sentences except for the wine. I know that kind of messes up your spacing between each sentence, but that would be something I might play around with. It looks great though!

ReplyDeleteHey, thanks Shaun for your comment about the spacing! I see what you are saying and will definitely try to fix this.
DeleteRaleigh, I love this! The color is great and the design is eye-catching and fun!
