Understand / Critique

I went to Interim and displayed my poster (Ruby couldn't make it), to get some feedback from the class. People thought that the message was pretty clear, and the imagery worked, although it could use a lot of refinement. They liked the place names that was scattered around, the name of it (treasure/trash hunt) and the simple illustrations of it. 

The things I took out of it in how to improve my poster is to:

- Type too hand drawn, bit too busy, could be changed to be more simple, it kind of clashed

- Type blended in with the illustration and background, very hard to see

- Need more text

- Make the illustrations stand out more, but not too big or cluttered

- Background is a bit rough, maybe change it? Make it lighter?

- Look at old nautical charts and adding compasses, etc

- Sea monsters and other stuff, have more illustrations similar to a nautical map of the past

- Make some lines bolder, which ones are more important?

We will have to look at these and improve before hand in. Definitely need to get rolling and come up with concepts for the flyer as well.
