To mark the upcoming Annual Student Art Exhibition at the Belk Visual Arts Center–and the reception!–interns from the Van Every/Smith Galleries visited the lab to plan and print a limited edition event poster. Posters always provide for interesting design discussions, since the goal is to communicate a maximum amount of information with a limited amount of text that will be consumed during a very brief moment–usually, the short span of time someone spends traveling past the poster. Posters are deceptively simple, but they give us the chance to consider typeface, type-size, and orientation in relation to the copy-text. Photographs (below) were taken by Chris Record, and are shared here with his permission.
