creating a poster practice

I have decided to create a poster to practice my poster creating skills for when I make my actual poster which is the one which will be part of my coursework. The preliminary task to create a poster is important because its role along with the radio advert will to be promote the newspaper I have created. It is essential that this is an effect piece of advertisement so I have selected an iconic symbol of south Liverpool which is the Picton Clock as the background to my poster so that the audience can relate to it.

































Next I want to add the logo used on the front page of my newspaper so that when the reader glances at the poster they can immediately relate it back to my newspaper and connect the two together.












































The next step in the creation of the poster is to be creative is coming up with a slogan which will catch the readers eye immediately when glancing at the poster to make them stop and read further. I have come up with the slogan 'NEWZ THAT MATTERS' as my paper tackles serious issues along with news that carries entertainment purposes.































An other way in which the audience can connect the poster with the newspaper is the way which i have used the same colours taken from my newspapers pages so that it is very easy for the reader to subconsciously connect the two. I have used colours such as dark red, grey and white which are key features of my newspaper. The final piece of my poster is to add the newspapers website so they are ware they can gain access to it via the Internet.




























This simplistic but effect poster uses now large quantities of text as the purpose of the poster is to catch the eye of people walking down the street which i believe this does to perfection.
