balloon posters (classes for October 25th and 27th)

Take a gander at these vintage travel posters as inspiration for your next set of exercises:


Create a series of posters (four) using the balloon we drew in class. (Save the same balloon four different times in Illustrator) Give each balloon a different color harmony (based on the online text book: http://www.pixelcola.net/textbook/front.html) Use the name of the color harmony (i.e. analogous or split complimentary) as the title of the poster.

Presence in class this week is once again not required, but these 11 x 17 posters should be posted to your blog by Friday, October 29th. Be creative in the placement of the display type (the title of the chosen color harmony), and in the placement and scale of the balloon. Each balloon should be a different size in each poster. Other elements (such as mountains or etc. are O.K., but all elements must be made of colors that fit the color harmony of the title of your poster.
