Assignment 6 - A Retrospective.

Design Analysis

In the midst of evaluating and scrutinising other's posters and their design, I have learnt that having a structure within a poster is of considerable importance. A structure will make the poster appear neat and organised, and this aspect will in turn influence how the viewer will look at the poster and interpret and read the information displayed.

In addition, it is also crucial to have some negative space in the poster. One that uses all available space will turn out aesthetically unpleasant, for it will appear largely cluttered and cramped, with information overloading and unorganised. Such a poster will not be able to capture view's attention, much less retain it.
