Below the picture wrote “You don’t want to be left out.” And then in big letters I wrote “WATCH IT” I did this so my audience will want to watch the soap. Then at the bottom right hand corner I drew the picture of another girl. And in between the pictures I drew a broken heart with a bloody knife in the middle to make it look more exciting to my audience.
Then at near the bottom of the page I wrote the time which was every Monday at 5:00 to 6:00. Finally at the very bottom of the page I wrote “Sponsored by Dior” I used the name of a perfume company so it will look more appealing to my target audience.
After planning the rough draft I was suppose to create a similar poster on Adobe Photoshop. At first I found it very hard to use. It took me more that three days to get the hang of it.
I started of by deciding to completely change the look of the poster from my rough draft because I thought it looked very dull although the words were catchy. So instead of making the background white I made it colorful with the help of the paint bucket and marquis tool I was able to use there rectangles which overlapped each other and each one had a different color. I used the colors blue and yellow for the outer rectangle. I colored the second rectangle purple and the inner one was colored pink.
After that I started creating the title using horizontal type tool. Then I colored every other letter pink and black since I thought that the two colors complemented each other. Then with the help of the blending options I was able to give the letters a shadow and make them glow. Then I slanted it on top of the page. Below it I wrote “Will their friendship survive?” I also gave it a shadow to make it standout. Then below that at the right hand corner I wrote “Find Out!” in blue and yellow colors.
Any poster would look boring without pictures so I got a picture of two girls of Google and I slanted it then placed it below the title. Then below it also slanted I wrote “You don’t want to be left out!” Near the middle right hand corner then I added another picture of two little girls who looked a bit like the girls in the first picture. I did this so it looks like the young version of the girls in the first picture. Then below the picture I wrote the times that the soap will be shown on T.V. They were:-
Mondays: 7:00pm
Wednesdays: 7:00pm
Fridays: 9:00pm.
Then below the times I wrote “Exclusive on itv1” and I used the itv1 logo to represent the channel. I also used the word exclusive to make my audience think that it is a very special show. Finally at the very bottom of the page I wrote “Sponsored by” and then I got the picture of the logo of McDonalds and placed it beside it.
Overall I think I did really well on my soap poster but the one thing I would like to change is the background. It did look nice on the computer when I created it but after it was printed out it lost some of its colour.
