week 1: PRACTICAL


Some of the developing a collage design:
You need to get the tools you need and cut out what you think is a
beautiful picture on a publication or other object.


Then combine them in many combinations until you find what you think is the most beautiful moment.
    
I think this kind of behavior is like taking the beautiful moments in your life that you have seen and then adding your own design and creation.

Reason:This poster integrates traditional Chinese porcelain culture to promote the theme and culture. The picture is clear and simple and rich in design.

My developing a collage design: 

The pure white and simple background color gives people a clear visual effect. The main characters are in sharp contrast with the background color, and some decorations of the same color or style that will not catch people's eyes make the picture richer.


FEEDBACK：Your own design reflects your own style and preferences, and I think you need to consider multiple aspects, including color matching, picture layout, style is harmonious, which is the key to a good poster design.
