Final





This is my final poster and then I placed it into context. I like it because it is quite simple and you can easily understand it. Even though it is simple I like how it is still detailed and interesting. 



Layout



I then tried some different layouts for my poster. I made the images smaller and made more of them because I thought this made it less dull.  The poster I like the most is the middle one because it has the most variety of sizes and placements and this makes it more interesting than the others and I like how the logo blends in with the instruments.

Instruments


I first made my own instruments and made them all quite easily recognisable so that the audience can tell what they are.


I then tried a simple layout for these instruments and text but I thought it looked to simple and dull and there isn't enough instruments. I also thought that the layout with the text placed at the bottom isn't interesting enough aswell.


Music

I then thought about how I could show music into a poster and liked the idea of clean illustrations of instruments because it is easily understandable and it wouldn't over power the text on the poster.

I then researched images of instruments illustrations


I like these silhouettes because they are simple and you understand what they are instantly and you can easily understand that it is showing music by having theses. I think making my own version of these would be good for my outcome.

Typography

My first idea to show Music in my poster was by using topography but made up from music notes so then it becomes alot more interesting and eye-catching than just having the word music. The first thing I did was to make a variety of different musical notes.




This was my first idea using typography and I don't like it and I don't think that typography is the right way to go with this. The problem is that it isn't big enough and the word music gets overpowered by everything else.
