The document provides ideas for designing posters for different campaigns. For an adult design competition poster, it suggests potential color schemes, fonts, and background images. For a kids design competition poster, it outlines color schemes, fonts for small/large text, and using lined paper for the background. For a beach clean poster, it proposes using litter images for the background and fonts. It also includes copy ideas and descriptions for each poster type. Several poster design ideas are then presented with descriptions of the layouts, backgrounds, fonts, and colors used.

Could hold text in the
centre of the poster
Use these types of images for

Potential font.
Would work for a
small amount of
bold text
Text wouldn’t be obvious with this
font, though could inspire some of
the shapes I use
Font for larger amounts of text

7. Idea 1
For idea 1 I have made sure that
everything is readable by
putting everything in boxes and
using contrasting colours.
Rather than using conventional
boxes, I have made them 3D. I
changed the perspective of the
text to fit in with the angle that
the boxes were at so it looked
as if the text was written on the
boxes. The text is also bold and
square, making it very clear. The
background pattern was
inspired by the shapes of
waves, however I think that due
to the amount of small detail
and how close the small details
are to each other, this might not
be obvious now.

8. Idea 2 (Final)
I like this idea more than the pervious
one. The background design is might
simpler, probably making it more suitable
for commercial purposes. The pattern was
inspired by the shape of waves, however
is still not obvious due to the geometric
shapes used. I have used the same colour
scheme as before. I like this colour
scheme as the colours are very minimal,
and contrasting so all of the text is
readable.

9. Idea 3
The background design stands out a lot
more than the previous idea. The
pattern covers a lot more of the poster
than before, though not as much as my
first idea. Like my pervious ideas, the
wave inspired shapes have been
somewhat lost in my editing. I think that
layout of my text is very unusual, but the
text is still clear and readable. This time,
I have put a contour effect on logo to
make it stand out more, but also to
soften the edges a little.

10. Idea 1
I really like the background pattern I
created for this design. It was inspired by
lined paper and by the shapes of waves.
This lined paper look almost makes it look
as if the poster was done by a child for
homework. I used a font that looked
handwritten to emphasize this look. Also,
all of the text has been put in boxes that I
have tried to make look like pieces of
paper stuck down with tape. I have used
contrasting colours so that the text can be
read easily.

11. Idea 2
I much prefer this design to the previous
one. I have kept the lined paper wave
background, though added in some
octopus tentacles to emphasize the sea
theme. I have used the same font,
though I have used some light grey for
some of my text, which I planned to use
from one of my colour schemes during
the idea development process. The font
is also smaller, in order to be able to fit it
into a small space, I think it is still
readable however.

12. This idea is the same as the previous one,
except grey front is a slightly darker shade.
This is because some of the text was quite
hard to read before.
