This week I have continued to work with my poster designs and I have created a range of images that are all suitable for using in my work, I have created these by getting a picture of the Ugandan child and making it black and white so it is easier to edit, I then used the halftone pattern tool this made the image look like it had been made from dots this is one effect I would like to use in my final design, this image below is one of those I have created, I am thinking of changing the dots on the child's face to a percentage of children orphaned by aids I will do this by colouring in the dot for the children who are not orphaned and making the others black and white for the children who are orphaned because of aids. I still have more ideas how to develop this in future lessons that should result in a successful poster.

this week i have started to develop my best poster thumnail on photoshop, on this poster i have decided to include links to unganda and percentages of orphaned children because i think this is the best way of raising money for the charity as people remember the percentages very well and therefore my work will meet its purpose. next week i am hoping to continue this and devolop the design greatly

last week we decided to sit down to have a coffee and discuss all of or ideas we had for this project, we had a range of different ideas which we all contributed to. we then created a mood board where we all added our ideas to it, this gave us a range of ideas we could use. the main ideas we came up with is something unique to Uganda e.g the country made up into words that linked to the country or using the flag, we also thought about using pictures of the ugandans so you can see what it is like where they are and there living conditions,These ideas will helped us and we are planning to develop them ideas to create a successful piece.
