Poster - Final Version


Feedback from my first actual draft of my poster was clear - they thought that it was a good attempt at emulating the success of my mockup, but the quality of the pictures were not as good. As well as this, I was told that it should be slightly darker to match the shady styling of the artists, it was obvious I had brightened the guitar holder, as the picture was slightly grey as a side effect, and was also seemingly too bright for the situation he was meant to be in.

One piece of feedback I found particularly useful was -
"The way the person on the right was cut out was rushed"

Using this feedback I took the original photograph and using photoshop, properly edited and cropped it in a way that was non intrusive to the form of the person and his guitar. In doing this, I made a higher quality picture than the other one where I had to blur out my cutting errors and had only been able to use a large erasing tool which deleted parts of the guitar. Clicking the picture allows you to see in better detail exactly how much of an improvement is there.

This is what I came up with after the feedback, and because I have corrected all the problems which were found in my first draft, I have decided that this is my final draft of my product before christmas. Though I may complete some research over christmas, this is as far as my production goes till after the holiday period.
