LI: to apply the print design rules.
We are learning how to apply the print design rules. We had to pick a poster from our inquiry and fix the poster. We add the print design rules on the poster. The print design rules are: Composition, layout colour and text. Composition is about the elements that go on the poster or media. Layout means everything has to be aligned. Colour means the background has to be understanding or the colour has to be appealing. Lastly the text, for the text you have to think about your font styles, sizes and colours. The colour of the text has to be visible.
