Finalish Poster

  1. I enjoy the overall feel of the poster. Your color choice and the dots that shape the continents. I also like the fact that they look like targets on the different areas of the world. From here the text in the circles look a little small but since this will be a poster, perhaps it will show up more in a larger size. The upper left corner is a little dead in terms of space but if you another small circle of a country, that should solve the issue! Overall I really enjoy the poster!

  2. Have you considered making the cut out lines around the bottom right more like the lines in the rest of the poster? also, put a little bit more space between the text in the brown box and the other box.

  3. I really like this design. There's a lot going on but I think all the elements work nicely together. I would just play around a little more with the positions of the circles. They're kind of clumped together (all but the two on the left side) and I think if you opened that area up a little more, it would lead your eye around the space nicely.

  4. I really like how the textures of the wood and the dots used to form the continents are working together. I think you could create a little more variety if you made some of the circles with the darker brown you used in the text box at the bottom. The inner text box is fighting with the paragraph in the outer text box. Try angling that one the same way or the opposite. It might not work but its worth a try. It looks just like you Becca. Good work!

  5. The type in the orange target dots is a little thin and hard to read white on orange. I like that the targets also sort of read as compasses for me.. reading through it gives that sense of going on a journey, a bit. The map is totally vague against the background texture.. I didn't see it until someone commented on it. But maybe that's okay, it would be really busy if it stood out.

  6. I think the poster has a really earthy feel, but I think you are having a lot of contrast problems. The type in the circles was really hard for me to read, but that could be the file type. I think you could reduce the space between "be more" and "than a tourist". There is more space between the title parts than between the title and the type below which is awkward. I think you could play with a little bit more variety in the circles and I didn't read the background as a map at all until someone else said something about it.

  7. I like the feel of the poster, but there are a lot of contrast and scale issues. Where is the focal point supposed to be? Or is it supposed to be more ambiguous? I didn't realize it was supposed to be a map either... is there something you can add to make it more obvious?

  8. This poster has a lot of strong elements going on. The textured background works well with the map, but it is hard to see. I love what you are doing with the circles. Try bringing more contrast so that each element is more clear. Maybe bring a new color in?

  9. I really like it, its dirty but still clean haha.

    the lines going off the page from the very bottom circle and the top circle feel like they're placed just to take up space unless people are coming from the poles. Your 'Be more than a tourist' tagline feels funky too. I want it to be on one line or something. little things, nice overall.
