How to Design Posters? Whether you want to create a poster as a piece of artwork, a personalized gift, or as an ad for a small business, there are decisions to make before you begin. Moreover, there are key elements you have to consider whenever you are creating a poster: First, poster should deliver your message. Second, it is well laid out. Third, it is self-explanatory. Fourth, appropriate to target audience. Lastly, words and pictures will print. Remembering these elements will guarantee that you get best from your work. When planning a poster it is vital that you have a clear concise message. More often than not, you will have less than a second to get your audiences attention. Once you have your customer’s attention you need to deliver your message to them in as little time as possible or draw them in to find out more by studying it deeper. Either way it needs to be apparent what you are telling them or showing them as it's unlikely you'll be there to give details. Even if poster is just there for decoration it needs to look right. Whatever message or content of poster you must make sure that it is targeted correctly. Make sure your poster stands out from crowd and is easily read. Remember you can even make black and white posters interesting, and color is always an option. In addition, you can now turn your photo, picture, artwork, image, etc. into a huge poster. Customized and personalized posters are now all rage. Before you bring your poster for printing always look at way it makes your point and have someone else view it as a sanity check. A poster is an important tool; use it carefully. Also, check spelling and grammar carefully. A poster printer is not a laser printer. You only get one chance to print it right. Lastly, verify that any images you use are appropriate for size you will be printing to. Graphics for posters tend to be large, so scan at high resolution to avoid sizing up and pixelating images. The images should be at least 150dpi at final size. Make sure any text you are using is strong enough to be seen against background. Remember most posters are viewed from a distance. Bold san serif fonts, Helvetica, Franklin Gothic for example, stand out well in dark colors against a lighter background. If you are using light type on a dark background it will become difficult to read. Provide as much information as possible in form of images or graphics rather than straight text. Remember that a poster paints a thousand words. Make it interesting with cartoons, humor, photographs and color. Another thing that you should consider is to avoid common mistakes. The number one mistake is to make your poster too long. Densely packed, high word-count posters are basically manuscripts pasted onto a wall, and attract only those viewers who are for some reason keyed up by manuscripts pasted onto walls. Your printing company, in printing posters should use powered computers and latest in digital enhancement techniques, to create most stunning high quality inkjet posters from almost anything. Make use of its services and allow their poster printing media to take you to edge of marketing your business. They must offer convenience and rapid turnaround on tighter budget digital printing. The process of creating and printing is quite a complex one with several pitfalls along way but they must guarantee full customer’s satisfaction.
