Poster Design With Changes

Flying Reptile Poster Design

In light of the new flying reptile exhibit at the Toledo Zoo, here are some poster designs I worked on for the exhibit. I am really in love with the first one, but not so much the second one. I couldn't seem to get the layout just right and would probably have benifited from having more time to work on it. But overall I am happy with the way they came out as a whole!

Practice Poster Design

Here are my practice poster designs. Overall I am pretty pleased with how they came out. However I wish the font base on these computers was larger and I had more options to choose from.

Helvetica

Although I've heard of this movie before this was the first time I have actually seen it. I found this documentary to be quite interesting. I guess I never really realized how much Helvetica is actually used, and I will definitely be seeing it more often now. It was interesting to watch what other peoples opinions of the font was. Some people loved it, and others hate it. I guess I am a more in-between person. I think its acceptable to use in some cases, but not all. And I do think that it's starting to become a little bit over-used. Overall though I thought the documentary had a lot of really useful information and I enjoyed watching it.
