The document summarizes the key changes made in redesigning a poster to promote a new certification process called NICE for interveners working with deaf-blind children. The final design uses alignment of photos and text effectively to communicate the message in a clean, modern style. It informs interveners that the NICE process provides an opportunity to obtain a national certificate and prove their skills are valuable for deaf-blind children.

1. Goal
To bring awareness to the new certification process offered by National Center on
Deaf-Blindness.
Audience
This poster is specifically for interveners who are working with children who are
deaf-blind.
Message
When readers are finished reading my information, I want them to know that the
NICE process provides an opportunity for interveners to obtain a national
certificate for their role in a deaf-blind child’s life. It offers them a chance to prove
their knowledge and skills are valuable to children who are deaf-blind.

4. Key Changes
For the redesign above, I took a completely different approach than my first sign
and tried to really get after the feeling of the poster. Using the photo as the
background, faded is something that I like doing when it comes to design. It
creates a clean poster but sometimes it just doesn’t work well. I like it but felt that
the information was disjointed and not harmonious.

6. Key Changes
I also changed the size of the poster depending on the layout I was working with
so this one is more widescreen. With this design I was trying to find better
alignment to bring things together. This was one of my favorites and you will see a
similarity in my final one with this one. Went back to have four pictures but very
little contrast in this one.

8. Key Changes
I was trying to incorporate repetition here with photos. Didn’t like this one at all and
the layout was pretty boring. Minimal style as well. But it was apart of the process.

10. Key Changes
I had used this design originally for contrast in the title and to make the title pop so
then I redesigned it again to use typeface to enhance it. Many people call this new
process NICE instead of saying the whole “National Intervener Certification E-
Portfolio.” I like that “NICE” stands out with the decorative font.

12. Final Design
Above is my final design that I ultimately went with. I liked this one because it
creates a great alignment. Uses text in a dynamic way and it gets the message
across to the interveners. I like that it is clean and more modern.
