My second attempt at Photoshop! After some user error this is what I came up with! I plan to alter my images using the same art technique...as soon as I figure out how! :D Any tips and suggestions would be GREATLY appreciated!!! I created the images in Word and copy/pasted into Photoshop. Is there an easier/more attractive way to do it?
Leah, just a quick comment. Is there a correlation between the colors in yes, you, your and the same colors that are used as subheadings in the poster? I was trying to see what the connection was but I am having a hard time figuring it out if there is one.
ReplyDeleteI really like the final subheading with the years attached. I may change 5 years to 5+years. And if you could differentiate the last 2 sentences to me they look like they are part of the final subheading but I think they could probably stand alone and they may benefit from being highlighted more.
Hi Leah -
ReplyDeleteI think - in reference to Rob's question - you pulled the colors from the Kohl's Logo? I am wondering if maybe you could pull the orange in place of the red color however? Also - on the Move Forward arrow, I think it would look a little better without the shadow. I'm also wondering if you might maybe consider changing the direction of the text at the bottom. So, rather that having it go right, left, right, you could emphasize the shape of the arrow more by just having it go right, then left creating a ">" shape similar to the arrow. To me, I can see how the arrow may emphasize the idea of "moving forward," so I think in further playing off of the shape, it might pull it together more. Besides that, I think the poster looks good. Good work!
Thanks guys! Kara is right about the color choices! I will certainly play around with the colors. It's funny that you should say that bout the shape Kara because that was my original intention but then when I did it, it threw off my margins because the length of the text and just one colored question not be right or left justified looked uninformed. I will play with it some more to see what I can do! Thanks about the picture! I used the artistic effects on word and the shadow wasn't that predominant in Word but I see now how pronounced it has become! And as far as they last two sentences...would bolding them be enough to set them apart? Kohl's is a big fan of white space in their designs that they have set out so I tried to play into that! And the Elevate, Engage, and Execute is one of their mottos. Another one is GO BIG....so I was thinking of incorporating that instead of the "move forward"...which I just made up.

ReplyDeleteI think that bolding them would definitely set them apart. I wonder if there's any way you could maybe get rid of some text or use less words to give you more space. Or maybe you could move them closer together? I'm excited to see your final product!
