Blog Entry #1.6- Design Brief (A)

I am going to design and make different posters that portray the 10 qualities of an IB Learner. It's a type of advertisement, an awareness flyer. To persuade people to find those qualities within themselves. See how easy that could be and how it can become a positive change for them.

The posters that I will be creating will have bright colors. To catch people's eye and call the attention. I'm also going to make the font a fair size, big enough so that it doesn't get lost in the poster. The color of the font will be bright but not the same color as the background. So that they dont blend into each other.

Blog Entry #1.5- Areas of Interaction (A)

Mr. Wang highlighted two Areas of Interaction. The first is Approaches to Learning. This includes reflection. In this task we have to reflect and see in which way each of the IB Learner Profiles apply to us. The second and last one is Human Ingenuity, which includes advertising. These posters are letting people know about the different qualities and how they can apply them to themselves.

Blog Entry #1.4- Design Task (A)

The task that we have been asked to solve is on the IB Learner Profiles. We are to create a poster on each one of them. Each poster has to have an image, the title of the IB Learner Profile quality and a caption that descibes that quality.

Blog Entry #1.3- Poster Analysis 3(A)

1) A boy is helping another girl up off the floor.
2) This image does not accurately communicate the point of the poster. Instead of caring the boy could come off as just being helpful.
3) The shade of blue that they used as the background didn't pop. I don think it was a good choice.
4)The word are located on the top and bottom of the picture. They're located there because words are usually always located on mid sections.
5) The font used here is Times Roman and I think they should have used an unordinary font to call more the attention.

Blog Entry #1.2- Poster Analysis 2 (A)

1)This is a student standing next to three flags from different countries.
2)I don't think the image communicates the point that way. Standing next to flags does not make you look open minded. They could have spoken about the different cultures of those countries.
3)The color used for the background is not used that often. A very uncommon color always calls the attention.
4)The words are located on the top of the poster in the middle. It's the first thing you see on the poster so that was a good place to put the title.
5)I like the font that was used. It's like goth letters. If the color of the font had been the colors of a certain flag it would have been much better.

Blog Entry #1.1- Poster Analysis 1 (A)

1)This is an image of a team working together to row a boat.
2)I think it does communicate the topic of the poster because the group has to row together to move in a controlled manner.
3)The color used for the font was a good color because since the background was black it popped out more.
4)They're located at the bottom of the poster in the middle. I think it was written there so that it could draw the attention. Be the first thing that was noticed.
5)The font was in capital letters. I think it was a good choice because it showed how important that topic was. Being capitals added emphasis to the word.
