Case Study - Local & Street Food Posters
"I'm not taking a picture. I'm capturing a magical moment and interaction."
Background
This is an exploration project. I have a lot of pictures of local & street food in my phone gallery. I want to document them. A blog is good, but I want something different, and then when I browse some inspirations, I have found an interesting poster, and that is the moment I decide to convert the photos into the poster.
1. Font Selection
Since the function of the poster is about communication and telling something, using good font will give a big impact on the final result. As for the fonts, I want something modern, clean, and unique.
2. The Elements
In my opinion, Photos and text are great combinations, but adding some elements will create a wow effect. Elements or ornaments are little things that make a big difference.
3. Photo Ambience
When I put the photo into the poster I felt that the ambiance did not match. After some exploration finally, I found a solution. Using layer blending to give a dramatic atmosphere and at the same time keep the consistency for other photos.
4. The Result
Here is the result, maybe someday I can hold a poster exhibition for local & street food and there will be a QR code on each poster so the visitors can scan and get the directions via Google Maps.
