Agenda The Construction Process – Layout & Design – Sample Posters Practice! Share with group for feedback

Considering the Layout – Visual Grammar – Columns – Organizational Cues – Balance and White Space – Text – How much is too much?

Visual Grammar

Use Columns

Use Organizational Cues

Consider Balance and White Space

How much text is needed? Posters are a visual medium to present a clear & simple message  Minimize text!  Use phrases rather than full sentences  Use an active voice  Avoid jargon  Use a san serif font  Text ~ pt  Headings ~ pt  Title ~ 34 – 42 pt (5cm tall)

Tips for the Construction Process Prepare ahead of time Experiment with the design Edit! Edit! Edit! Use figures and examples Get someone to proof-read your poster Be aware of the time & cost to print a poster

Sample Posters For each of the sample posters, comment on the following: – Design – Format – Text vs. Images

Let’s Practice Steps to Making a Poster in PPT Create a new PPT on one slide Layout: Format – slide layout “blank” Set the dimensions – Eg. 3X4ft = 36X48in (91.4X121.9cm) OR 2X3ft = 24X36in (61X91.4in) Create text: Insert – text box Use gridlines when arranging the text/images – view - gridlines

Presentation Tips Before the Conference: – Think of possible questions that people may ask & practice your answers – Prepare extra copies of your poster During the Conference: – Have a bottle of water on hand – Place copies of your poster in an accessible location – Have a contact sheet – Take the time to look at other posters

Presentation Tips cont’d After the Conference: – poster to those who were interested – Follow-up with those you networked with
