Yearbook Sales

Top 10 rules for a good poster

Rule 1: Define the Purpose

Rule 2: Sell Your Work in Ten Seconds

 Rule 3: The Title Is Important

Rule 4: Choose your colors wisely 

 Rule 5: Many of the Rules for Writing a Good Paper Apply to Posters, Too

Identify your audience and provide the appropriate scope and depth of content. If the conference includes nonspecialists, cater to them. Just as the abstract of a paper needs to be a succinct summary of the motivation, hypothesis to be tested, major results, and conclusions, so does your poster.

Rule 6: Good Posters Have Unique Features Not Pertinent to Papers

 Rule 7: Layout and Format Are Critical

 Rule 8: Content Is Important, but Keep It Concise

 Rule 9: Posters Should Have Your Personality

 Rule 10: You of all people should be proud of your finished product

 The goal of this project is to create a promotional poster that lets the student body know that VHS yearbooks are now on sale through the Jostens site at jostensyearbook.com or in the office. The poster must incorporate all 10 rules of poster making. Graphic Design is an art form and all of the posters should display individual creativity
