Sawdust Festival

This assignment showed me that although we have gone over a lot of skills in InDesign and Photoshop, there is so much more I want to learn! I would have liked to have created a font for this exercise. I used a gradient and put a picture of sawdust, with a low opacity, under the yellow.

I created a similar poster to the one I am submitting but when I realized I had not chosen an image to include in the poster, my entire file changed. I found the paintbrush image and was able to add 3 colors from the image to my swatches; thus being able to change all of my font colors to match the image. This is what allowed me to feel the file was finished (within my time constraints). I realized that color scheme is the most important.

From now on I will start any InDesign venture with designated images directing my color.
