poster in graphic design

In general, posters are announcement leaflets/placards to convey information that are posted in public places or places that can be read by the general public. Poster or placard is a work of art or graphic design that contains a composition of pictures and letters on large paper. The application of posters can be done by sticking them on a wall, or other flat surface with the strongest eye-catching properties possible. Therefore, posters are usually made with contrasting and strong colors.

The poster’s identity includes the language used, which is short, concise, interesting, and persuasive (inviting). In addition, in writing posters, it is recommended not to use too many variations of letters so as not to confuse people who read them. The size of the writing on the poster should not be arbitrary, it must be visible from a distance of 7-10 meters. Then, the color variations used are not too many, only 4-5 colors so as not to confuse the eyes of the reader.

Making a poster begins with determining the main concept that will be published to the general public, understanding the essence and main statements that will be written in the poster, determining the size of the poster (posters usually contain 20% text, 40% graphics, and the rest is empty space), and determining the elements. needed to make a poster. Poster designs are made using a graphics program on a computer or created/drawn manually and then scanned or digitally photographed so that they are digital. The purpose of this digitization is to speed up, simplify and reduce printing costs.
