Classroom Critique

Today we were told to write a critique for one of our classmate's Chili Cook-off competition poster layouts. 
  "I found that the landscape format and giant chili pepper along with the dynamic heading really stick out and work well together.  The area where the text will be put however may need careful attention as it could be a  bit too small, depending on the font size you use.  The chili pepper illustration looks fine but you might consider adding something like a bowl or cookbook to add a little more clarification to the event.  You might have to adjust the size of the illustration as well.  Keep it big but make sure it doesn't crowd the layout too much.  The text heading is interesting  but you might consider keeping it consistent.  Either tilt the word Chili as well or look at putting it a different way all together."

  1. This was actually my least favorite to begin with, but now that you point it out as liking it, it stands out to more. I like the concept of adding a cookbook or bowl. I agree with adjusting the size of the illustration too.
