Local motion is made to try and get people to use public transport like buses or trains, ride bikes or walk more often.
I have been asked to make a poster for local motion, the poster will promote the use of walking, cycling or using public transport instead of using cars. This will be going onto buses or on trains. On this poster there will be images of busses and people walking, there will also be information about what local motion is about.
For the Local Motion poster I will be using text in the size 20 and in the style Arial black in bold,, there are a lot of different type faces for example Serif, Sans Serif, Roman, Gothic and more. I chose Arial black because i thought that it stand out the most. I used a photo of a train on my poster, I got the image from https://railway-news.com/db-regio-order-multiple-unit-regional-trains-siemens/ and it wast a copyright image, I chose an image of the train because local motion is used to encourage people to use public transport, walk or use a bike than using cars.
Other images that look like the one i have chosen would cost about £6.75 to use it in a large size. I have chose the image of the train on my poster because i thought it fit well with the poster idea that i had, i think that this image is good to use because i think that it will look good for the idea that i have and because it looks like it is in high quality so it will be good to use when i edit it, it is also really clear and big.
To do this I used the polygonal lasso tool to cut the image of the train and when I cut the image of the train I picked a background to use and copy and pasted the image of the train onto the background.
To put the local motion logo onto the poster i saved it from the local motion website and then put it onto my poster, to cut out the white edges of the logo i clicked onto the magic wand tool and then clicked onto the white bits then I pressed delete on the keyboard to get rid of the white corners.
To add the text that is above the train, i use the pen tool to draw a line above the train, after that i clicked onto the text tool and pressed onto the line to add the text to it, i then changed the colour of it to red. for the other 2 texts I right clicked onto the text and pressed onto blending options, after that i clicked on outer glow to create a glow around the text.
My poster is a bit different to the original local motion poster because in the original one some of the images in the background are cartoon but on mine the images aren't cartoon, they are real images. The text on my poster is a bit smaller than the original poster, the are also both different colours, my poster also has some information about what local motion is and what it is about.
