Helpful Hints when creating your piece:
- Keep the text brief; your message and/or mission should be clear and understandable without oral explanation.
- All letters on your poster should be big enough to make it readable at 5 feet.
- Avoid lesser-known abbreviations and acronyms.
- Upper and lowercase letters together are easier to read than all uppercase letters.
- Background and print colors should be in contrasting colors.
- Color is an efficient and effective way to draw attention.
- A photograph is often worth a thousand words.
