How to design poster typesetting? What are the creative skills of poster design?

What is the design and production process of the poster? To make a beautiful poster, we must first make clear the theme of the poster and collect relevant pictures and text materials according to the theme. Determine the content of the products or activities to be promoted in the poster, and draw up the propaganda slogan or introduction to prepare for the production of the poster. After selecting the material according to the determined topic, it is necessary to sort out and modify the material and apply it to the poster. The first is the design of the poster background. Depending on the theme, if the theme is related to "Silent Night", the background color can be blue, or it can be a pattern background related to night. Making the background tangent to the theme is the key to making a beautiful poster. According to the layout requirements, the text should be typeset first. Put the text to be introduced in the corresponding layout and change the font according to the overall style of the poster. Pop font is a commonly used font in poster making, which is relatively easy without changing the shape of the font itself, and is suitable for making posters from the perspective of aesthetics and rigor. After designing the font, read it carefully to avoid unnecessary mistakes and language diseases. After the text is typeset, the picture should be typeset. Paste the picture into the corresponding layout area. The pasted picture should be clear and beautiful, and the color should not conflict with the background color. After pasting, the size of the picture should be modified to adapt to the size of the whole layout and the text on the layout, so as to maintain the coordination between the two. After the background, text and pictures are done, a poster is basically completed. But in order to make the poster more beautiful, it should be adjusted according to the effect reflected by the whole poster. When adjusting, try to enrich the content of the poster, adjust the color matching of the poster and highlight the eye-catching point of the poster. After adjustment, design an attractive theme for the poster and put the theme in the layout. The font of the topic should be the most eye-catching and the color should be the most prominent. What are the creative skills of poster design? 1. Select black as the poster background. Usually, we are used to designing posters on white canvas. However, some visually interesting posters will avoid the white background and use black. If you use black, you can consider printing information and pictures with metallic ink or even bright white, so as to make an eye-catching poster. 2. Simple, simple and beautiful young designers are often keen to fill 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 it doesn't use complicated graphic elements. AnthonyLane designed these posters only by combining photos with key content. Refine and simplify your poster in this way, and only select the most critical elements and contents when making, and you can create elegant and exquisite graphic design works. 3. Add personalized fonts. Professional design is not limited to conventional fonts and neat layout. Try to use a font full of personality and rebellion, and eventually you will get a bold and personalized work (made by FAUPE) like the poster above. If you have enough time, take out a marker or any other writing tool you like, write down what you want to write, and create a decadent handwriting for your poster. Believe me, your handwriting is much more interesting than you think. 4. Using grid grid is one of the most useful tools. You can use it to create and design professional and neat works. Create a grid of your own posters to control the design, and you can make a professional design work like the above case. Once you design a grid as a solid foundation, you can use different font sizes and some simple design elements. You can use monochrome or complementary colors to create color contrast, as in the example above. 5. Try black and white photos. Are you still struggling with the photos for the poster? Turn it into black and white. This effective method can make elegant posters (as shown above, works designed by Sgustok Studio). When you are dealing with the photos on the poster, you should carefully consider how to cut them. The part you decided to cut out conveyed as much information to the audience as the part you left behind. 6. It takes you a lot of time to decide how to use and match these colors and how to apply them to your works. It is particularly troublesome for beginners in design. If you are only familiar with color and design, try to reduce the colors in your palette and don't give yourself too much burden. Try to match black, white and bright colors. Use bright color as the main color, white as the auxiliary color, and black as the emphasis color, just like the above example. 7. Reduce complexity and simplify it. Take LucasD_rre in the above picture as an example to make everything as simple as possible. Make sure your photos are of the highest quality and the typesetting is accurate and ingenious. Don't be obsessed with adding fancy decorations, just start with the basic elements. Don't focus on creating and adding some design elements to your poster. Keeping the basic content as much as possible is an effective way to make beautiful works. 8. Collage and cascade design elements and creative masks, or collage design elements increase the visual interest of posters. I don't know what I'm talking about. Refer to the poster case above. In this poster, there is no three-dimensional font. You can see a B-shaped mask display image, which is related to the copy on the poster. 9. Choosing the classic method is unwilling 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 fun, adjust the opacity, as shown above. 10. Try to feel retro. Not all the works you design should conform to the current aesthetic trend. Retro works can be as eye-catching as fashionable works. Don't you believe it? Look at this amazing poster made by JessicaSvendsen. 1 1. Imitate movie posters Some of my favorite posters are made to promote excellent movies. Refer to the posters of your favorite movies or get inspiration from countless movie posters. The reliable solutions they provide won't let you down. I don't understand what this means. Look at the poster case above. Doesn't it look like what you saw in the local cinema? 12. Clear and fuzzy mashup I like the poster above, which combines clear and regular fonts with fuzzy background. This method can beautifully create unexpected visual contrast. Similarly, look for different methods, such as using filters and some processing methods to create beautiful and amazing design schemes. 13. Highlight the content with bold pictures. The poster shown above is part of RossGunter's personal project. For this project, he created a series of posters, which all adhere to the principle of "two core elements, consistent layout and a large number of graphics". Similarly, bold graphics are used to add vitality to simple layouts. You can break your own grid by using a large font or a large picture that exceeds the page. 14. Play with opacity. Put the color gamut layer by layer on the photo and adjust its opacity, and it will present a simple and modern style as shown above. Pay attention to the different colors used on different elements. Choose a bright color for the top element and a dark color for the bottom element. This will keep your different design elements from being confused. As far as the above cases are concerned, if the colors of the font and the color block are exchanged, the title can't be seen clearly. 15. Show your products. I like the square chairs arranged on the poster of Tournaud Company. If you are designing posters for one or a series of products, you can consider putting your products in the center. You don't have to list the photos of the products on the poster. You can draw some illustrations for your products like Noel Company. If you have a series of products, you can use a grid to arrange them, as shown in the case. This will not only help you arrange the content, but also save design time. In the end, your graphic design works will be balanced and coordinated. If you only make a poster of a single product, you can enlarge the illustration to fill the page. 16. Outside the page, all the elements in your poster are not strictly limited to the printed page. Let it overflow or fill the page at will. In this way, you will create fashionable and beautiful visual effects, such as the colorful work above Kui Malin. 17. Unexpected typesetting Like this case you saw, surprise your audience with some unexpected typesetting. Break the set grid or place titles and references completely at will. Finally, you may get a work as pleasing to the eye as the poster of Amman laboratory. How to make an academic poster? Choose your content wisely.

The information you can convey on the research poster is very limited. Please choose an aspect that you think can fully explain your research in a few sentences and figures, and focus on this aspect. Keep it simple!

2, rational use of poster typesetting design program.

Most people use PowerPoint to typeset posters, mostly because the famous PowerPoint is well-known, people will think of it at the first time and know how to use it, or use other people's templates in the laboratory, and so on. You know, there are many other programs that specialize in typesetting, such as LaTeX. If you are willing to spend a little time learning how to use them, you will get better typesetting effect.

3. Smooth layout

When making a poster, let your readers feel that the process of your poster is very natural and obvious, without deliberate traces. There are many posters on display, and many authors will store their own posters on them. Look at their poster designs, especially the award-winning posters, and then find out what type of layout you think is effective and learn from it.

4. Title

There are generally dozens of scientific research posters at the conference, and the exhibition time is generally only 2-4 hours. Therefore, in order to attract passers-by, you should make your title as interesting and rich as possible. You need to use a font size that can be seen from 3-5 meters away, between 72 and 90.

5. Make your poster visually attractive.

Your wonderful title has now attracted the attention of passers-by, who will think, "How long will it take me to finish reading this thing?" In order to keep their interest, please make sure that your research poster mainly uses numbers and pictures to tell your story, and avoid using long paragraphs. You need to make your numbers and pictures visually attractive and have certain internal logic.
