Project #03

Alignment Poster
Due: August 22

Summary

Using our art supplies, make a poster that illustrates alignment. Non-digital.

Guidelines

  • Use white 9" x 12" paper as the foundation for your design.
  • Design it in landscape format: with the 12" edge going left-to-right and the 9" edge going top-to-bottom.
  • You can use any of the available materials to complete your ad: markers, colored pencils, crayons, rulers, compasses, colored paper, scissors, glue. Do not cut pictures from magazines.
  • Start your design in pencil so you can make adjustments before you finalize your design.
  • Write the word ALIGNMENT in letters at least two inches high somewhere on your poster, so they can be read across the room. Check your spelling!
  • The rest of your poster must be arranged like this:
    • THREE identical shapes/images which are close to each other and aligned along an imaginary vertical line which is at least ½ inch from the left edge.
    • THREE identical shapes/images which are different from the first three, and are close to each other and aligned along an imaginary vertical line which is at least ½ inch from the right edge.
    • The top shape/image in each group should be aligned along an imaginary horizontal line which is at least ½ inch from the top edge.
    • If you can make your items align with the word "alignment" in some way, that's even better.
  • Make it colorful.
  • Make it neatly. Take your time.
