Keep Our World Wet (Tutorial)

Effective Design for Public Service Announcements

Here I walk you through designing a PSA billboard encouraging the public to engage in global responsibility by driving electric.  We will be using Canva as our editor, Unsplash for our background photo, the Degraeve Color Palette Generator to analyze our background colors, and the Adobe Color Wheel to help pick out the color for the main text. The photo we will be using is by Patrick Hendry on Unsplash.

 

PSA Billboard

Using Gimp or a similar program, create a public service announcement billboard on something that really aggravates you about people, society, the world, etc. It can be serious, goofy, but not offensive. Use a 680 x 300 work space in order to mimic the space of a billboard and have fun with how your positioning, font, colors, and images can help get your message across in a small space.

Take it to the next level but superimposing it on a photo of an existing billboard!
