FINAL POSTER.

After some feedback from Chris in the workshop, I decided to add the colour scheme and the ‘noise’ style from my web design to make sure each design relates to each other. I also changed the annotation lines to make them darker and more symmetrical. I am very happy with my end result, I feel its simple yet very aesthetically pleasing. From a 14 years old opinion I think it doesn’t go into too much detail and it’s not over complicated. I tried to design it so it could go in a physics text book, or equally in a text book on Einstein as well as being related to my ‘website’. I also made it to be more of a ‘fun fact’ about Einstein, but also keeping it educational. I created all the icons and the timeline in Illustrator. I then added the text through InDesign, using the SpaceCard and Space of Time font that I downloaded from dafont.com. I then had to place the text back into Illustrator to create the background and colour scheme.

FINAL FONT.

After editing the outlines in Illustrator, I started again applying the stencil effect into it. I placed a professional photo of coffee granules that had some blurry parts in it to create distance and texture behind the font. I made the lower case ‘coffee’ have the original ‘Costa’ coffee colour (magenta). I really do like this font, making all the letters lower case kept the design a lot more continuous and flowing. Keeping the style of ‘stencils’ and the background of coffee granules keeps the font relevant to the market but also I did it because I liked the theme of using food integrated with letter forms. The only thing I feel that would have been good was to carry on with developing the idea of physical design of the stencil behind actual coffee granules and taken professional photos of it.
