The History Of Motocross: Essay

My history poster is on The History of motocross. I choose motocross because it has played a huge part in my life throughout it. the design i choose draws the readers eyes to the huge 2012 bike in the middle and gradually moves your eyes around the poster. Down the right side of the poster is a mini timeline for the history of motocross. My design conforms to the rule of thirds because nothing is placed exactly in the middle of the poster. The poster has a piece in every cordinent in the rule of thirds. Emphasis is used in my poster by the huge bike near the middle of the poster. Alignment was used because i aligned the history of motocross words with the bike suspension. Contrast was addressed in the background of my poster with the different shades in the tracks of the bike. Repetition was used for the repeat of black and green throughout the font and in two of the bikes. The piece i believe flows very well around the poster. The poster is well balanced with the bikes on one side of the poster and the history timeline on the other side. I downloaded a font to use called raprock. I then made the font black with a green outline to it all to match the huge bike. My poster follows the constructivism, and art deco design styles.
