Color Theory Poster Project
In this project, you will build a color theory poster based on the supplied sketch and materials. First, you’ll follow the video tutorial to lay out the poster. In this poster, we will switch between using three and four-column layouts. Once you complete the framework, you must research the different topics and provide descriptions for each item. Finally, spend some time applying design to the poster. Experiment with Adobe Color to find the perfect color harmony for your poster.
