Briefly describe the creative elements of the poster?

Like these two posters I saw on the Xiaobai Design app, I think the design elements are actually very simple. Just match the pictures and text, and the overall look will be comfortable. "Thirty Only" and "Twenty Not Confused" are both popular TV series recently. The poster of "Thirty Only" is the background of mature women, with red fonts and red and white contrast, just like women in this period, not afraid of age. You can also live proudly. The background of "Twenty Not Confused" is a photo of a young girl in the library. She should still be at the age of studying at this time. The girl in the picture is smiling, which echoes the theme of "Twenty Not Confused". The whole thing is also It's very erotic.

Retrostyle Retrostyle

Travel posters began in the 20th century In the early days, railroad companies would commission artists to design posters promoting tourist cities, resorts, and weekend getaways using the same format.

The posters are very colorful and eye-catching when posted at the station. The hand-drawn illustrations have a strong retro flavor and strong narrative, giving people an adventurous, fresh and charming impression.

Travel posters from 1900 to 1940 were also influenced by different styles of art movements, such as Art Deco and Art Nouveau.

In addition, Alex Asfour also added noise to the sky, mountains, cars and other scenes, and filled the grainy texture with soft gradient colors, which not only gave the illustration a rich three-dimensional sense, but also made the entire page It looks very delicate and delicate.

The colors of the illustrations are mostly warm, with a strong retro flavor, and the flat-style colors with low saturation are soft, lively and full of vitality. The poster is mainly based on the graphic visual presentation of illustrations, with less text and contains main, subtitles and auxiliary information.

GeometricShapes

In the 20th century, many travel agencies no longer commissioned Artists instead invited commercial designers, and the poster style became more modern and simple.

Today, Memphis style is very popular in graphic design. It is characterized by the extensive use of geometric elements such as points, lines, and surfaces, lively and bold typography, bright and bright colors, and strong contrast.

Toral Bheda, a designer from Mumbai, India, used this style to create a series of minimalist travel posters, abstracting representative elements of each country or region, such as landmarks, national flags, culture, etc. The visual language is presented, the picture is simple but full of fun.

Quality Photography GreatPhotos

The promotion of tourist attractions is inseparable from photographers. Good pictures can often make people think "this life" at a glance. Must go to xx" idea.

Blockbuster photography, coupled with simple layout of copywriting, is the routine of many Japanese fresh-style travel posters.

Each award-winning poster can be printed out and used as a decorative painting. The photography shows beautiful natural scenery everywhere from composition, color to light and theme.

Creative Graphic

Expressing creative ideas in posters is also a common advertising routine. People are less repulsive to interesting and novel things. The content of travel posters is to attract tourists. How to express the beauty of scenic spots is an idea worth exploring creatively.

For example, the graphic advertisement designed by Brazil's ALMAPBBDO for the travel magazine "TOPDestinos" is very novel, using a cake to vividly express the waterfall scenery. In the gradient gray background, large areas of green and small areas of clear blue are eye-catching.

For another example, in this ski-themed travel advertisement, the poster does not show any scenic spots, and only uses a few pieces of paper and a paperclip on the desk to create a simple ski scene. At first glance, it is a travel advertisement aimed at office workers. The copywriting and pictures arouse strong excitement. What are some tips for creative poster design?

1. Choose black as the poster background. Usually, we are used to designing posters on white canvas. However, some visually interesting posters eschew white backgrounds in favor of black. If using black, you might consider using metallic ink or even bright white to print messages and images to create an eye-catching poster. 2. Simplicity and simplicity are beautiful. Young designers are often keen on filling every corner of the canvas. But you don't have to do this, simple works of art are often the most beautiful. The poster shown above is very beautiful, but does not use very cumbersome graphic elements. Anthony Lane designed these posters simply by combining photos with key content. Use this method to refine and streamline your poster, using only the most critical elements and content to create an elegant and sophisticated graphic design. 3. Add personalized fonts. Professional design is not limited to regular fonts and neat layouts. Try to use fonts that are full of personality and rebelliousness, and you will end up with a piece of work as individual and bold as the poster above (made by FAUPE). If you have time, grab a marker or any other writing tool you like and write what you want to give your poster a handwritten grunge look. Trust me, your handwriting is a lot more interesting than you think. 4. Use Grids Grids are one of the most useful tools you can use to create professional and neat designs. Create your own poster grid to control the design, and you can create professionally designed works like the example above. Once you've designed a grid as a solid foundation, you can use different font sizes and some simple design elements. You can use a single color or complementary shades to create color contrast, as in the example above. 5. Try black and white photos. Are you still confused about which photo to use on your poster? Make it black and white. This effective method produces elegant posters (like the one above by Studio Sgustok). When you're working with photos for posters, think carefully about how you're going to crop them. The parts you decide to cut out will convey just as much information to the viewer as the parts you decide to leave behind. 6. Use minimal colors. Complex poster tones require you to spend a lot of time deciding how to use and match these colors, and how to apply them to your work. This is especially troublesome for those new to design. If you're new to color and design, try to keep the colors in your palette to a minimum and don't overburden yourself. Try a combination of black, white and a bright color. Use a bright color as the main color, white as the secondary color, and black as the accent color, like in the example above. 7. Cut out the complex and keep it simple. Follow the example of Lucas D_rre in the picture above and do your best to make everything as simple as possible. Make sure your photos are of the highest quality and formatted accurately and skillfully. Don't obsess over adding fancy embellishments, just start with the basic elements. Don’t get stuck thinking about adding some design elements to your poster. Keeping the content as basic as possible is an effective way to create beautiful work. 8. Collage and layer design elements and creative color masks, or collage design elements to increase the visual interest of the poster. Don’t know what I’m talking about? Refer to the poster example above.

There is no 3D font used in this poster, you can see a B-shaped mask showing the image, which is related to the copy on the poster. 9. Choose the classic method. Don’t want to take risks? Then try the classic method. Arrange regular black fonts on a white background and use interesting pictures or illustrations as the background. If you want to add some interest, adjust the opacity, as shown above with LittleUpsideDownCake. 10. Try a retro feel. Not all of the pieces you design must conform to current aesthetic trends. Retro pieces can be just as eye-catching as trendy pieces. Don’t believe it? Check out this stunning poster by Jessica Svendsen above. 11. Imitate Movie Posters Some of my favorite posters are made to promote great movies. See what your favorite movie posters look like, or get inspired by countless movie posters. The tried and tested solutions they offer will not let you down. Not sure what this means? Take a look at the example poster above. Doesn’t it look like something you’d see at your local movie theater? 12. A mix of clear and fuzzy I really like the combination of clear and regular fonts in the picture above. Combining posters with blurred backgrounds, this method can beautifully create unexpected visual contrast. Likewise, look for different ways to use filters and manipulations to create beautiful and stunning designs. 13. Use bold images to highlight content The poster shown above was part of a personal project for RossGunter. For the project, he created a series of posters that adhere to the principle of "two core elements, a consistent layout and a large number of graphics." Likewise, use bold graphics to add pizzazz to simple layouts. You can use large fonts or large images that extend beyond the page, breaking up the grid you've established. 14. Play with Opacity Layer color fields over your photo and adjust their opacity to create a clean, modern style like the one shown above. Pay attention to the different colors used on different elements. Choose a brighter color for the top elements and a darker color for the lower elements. This will keep your different design elements from getting confused. In the case above, if we swap the font and color block colors, we won’t be able to see the title so clearly. 15. Display your product I love the square array of chairs in the Tournoir poster above. If you are designing a promotional poster for a product or series of products, consider placing your product in the center. You don't necessarily have to list photos of your products on your posters. You can draw some illustrations for your products like Knoll did. If you have a range of products, you can use a grid to arrange them as shown in the example. This will not only help you arrange the content but also save design time. In the end, your graphic design work will be balanced and coordinated. If you are making a poster for a single product, you can enlarge the illustration so that it fills the page. 16. Go Beyond the Page All the elements in your poster don’t have to be strictly limited to the printed page. Feel free to let it overflow or fill the page. In this way, you will create stylish and beautiful visual effects, such as this brightly colored piece from QuimMarin above. 17. Unexpected layout As you saw in the example, use some unexpected layout to surprise your audience. Break the established grid or place titles and quotes completely randomly. You might end up with something as pleasing to the eye as the Amman Lab poster.
