St. Mary's Art 2011–12 Posters
A1 & A2 Posters around school
To celebrate St. Mary's Catholic High School, Menston Sixth Form pupils' work and maintain the profile of Art & Design around school two different posters were created.
The posters designed in Adobe Photoshop and printed in A1 and A2 size by Quarmby Colour in Leeds. The print finish was matte.
Photographs were taken of the work on the day it was being moderated. One of the poster designs shows many different pieces. It would not have looked good at smaller than A1 size. The images are cropped so they offer glimpses into to the work or highlight details.
A bright yellow typeface was chosen to complement the strong yellow shades in the portrait. The School crest and logotype were recoloured to match using Illustrator so it remained a vector, as was the 'Values, Care, Achievement'.
The posters have been framed and displayed in Art classrooms as well as around school. The project was deemed a success.
