The document discusses the steps taken to create a poster advertising a food sale event, including:
- Adding a gradient backdrop and cropped logo in the center
- Inserting information about the date, time, location, and food items being sold
- Refining the poster by removing excess white space around the logo and cropping out smaller pixels
- Adding catchy text about shark finning to draw more attention to the poster

3. MANUFACTURING OUR POSTER
I also included
I wanted to start with a
the logo on our
back drop that I made
shirts and am
on photo shop using the
attempting to
‘gradient’ tool. I
make it centre of
decided to go with this
attention on the
colour because it
poster
corresponds to the
colour of our created
logo on the shirts. It’s
also an eye catching
colour.
4. MANUFACTURING OUR POSTER
When adding in our logo I
had to crop it down to a
suitable size.
Once inserted, the
next step was to
crop out the white
areas around the
shark’s head.
5. MANUFACTURING OUR POSTER
Then using the marquee tool I
begun to crop out the larger white
areas.
I then had to use the
magic wand tool. This
tool enabled me to
crop out the smaller
white pixels that are
along the logo curves.
6. MANUFACTURING OUR POSTER
The next step was adding
in all of the information.
This poster is for the food
sale, which means all that
needs advertising is the
food. Another poster will
be used to advertise our
product and the HKSF. As I
attempted to add in all
the information but the
poster wound up looking
overcrowded.
7. MANUFACTURING OUR POSTER
By this stage the poster had
the logo and all the necessary
information for the event.
Although my partner and I felt
it lacked something and didn't
attract attention. As space on
the poster was limited I simply
added another text, a catchy
line to do with shark finning
and using the blur tool defined
and outlined the main areas
on the poster.
