motivational poster

The requirements for your motivational poster include the 6 layers which are, one of your Manifestos and Personal Quotes that stand out to us and that explain us, and those are 2 of your layers. Then you have 4 other layers which are image layers. Those image layers include 3 symbolic images that represent who you are and 1 Portrait of your face. In a motivational poster there are design requirements...Kerning of both text layers all the way across the page so there are no blank spaces or holes.Also it needs to have a triadic color scheme which is 1 dominant color harmoniously balanced with 2 accent colors.Visual Balance is important tool,Its an Equal weight of elements distributed in a design. also it's very important to blend all of your colors to stand out of the picture.



Making a motivational poster can be tricky so follow the following steps...First, Make a a list of 3 of your own personal and unique symbols. Second, take pictures of your symbols and posts them pictures to google+. Then make a list of your own personal quotes that mean something to you. Next, take a portrait picture of you (picture of your face). After that create a photoshop document and import you personal quotes and your symbols (there should be a total of 4 pictures). Now comes the fun part... First kern your personal quotes to the variety of style you want them and here's a tip, be
creative when doing this. Then size your symbols to the size and shape you want them. Lastly top it off with some color! Change the colors of words to stand out through your pictures. Good Luck!




I think that the most challenging part out of the whole motivational poster for me was the kerning. I saw some people zoom right through it but when I got to it I was having trouble. It was the most challenging for me because you have to find a font, length and width that will Stand out. Because that's what tops the whole poster off. Also you have to pick the word that you want to stand out or the sentence. Another reason of why it was challenging is because there are a variety of controls and tabs that you can kern with. I think one way I improved is to definitely try to know what all the tools are on the kerning set up and have someone at your table that is convenient to help you. My final kerning took a while for it to look the best that it could be but it was all worth it!

One interesting fact about myself is that my passion is SOCCER!Also I wear gray with pink lace vans (shoes). I have dirty blonde hair with full blonde on the tips, and it”s all natural. Plus, I always put my hair up either in a braid,in a bun or a ponytail. Lastly i’m in 7th grade so i’m going to be wearing a black shirt.


Do one thing you love every single day. Do me a favour and smile. Laugh, it's healthy for you. Live, laugh, love. Surround yourself with people and things that make you happy. Do what you love, love what you do. Be strong. Be the change you want to see in the world. Nothing is impossible. Be happy. Keep learning. Don't follow your dreams, chase them. Share your passion. Be yourself because everyone else is taken. Live healthy. Work yourself. This is your LIFE.

A manifesto is how you want to live your lives and all the goals that you want to achieve. We are doing this project because our quotes tell about the kind of people we are. Each person picked different quotes that describe them. So there are not two that are exactly the same. A manifesto also reminds us what our goals are and what we want to complete.
