How I used P.A.R.C to create this the Dodgeball poster was we viewed the older posters for this project which helped me see what things people may like to see. I grouped together the things that seemed most logical to be put together.
As for alignment I used all Left, Center, and Right.
When choosing colors I used the tool that allows me to sample the colors in my background photo to give it a pleasing look.
Contrast was kept bright to a certain point and I [tried] to make it all seem the same in contrast.

For the Don't Share poster I tried to group together the things to avoid and then group what not to touch.
For alignment I thought that a Left and Center would work well since when people read they go from left to right and something in the center is good for our brains to group the subject under.
Using lighter colors for this was what I thought would be best so not to be overly "in your face" but also not to dull so it doesn't catch attention.
Repeating colors and using different fonts so it isn't completely a repeated looking poster. I used objects that shouldn't be shared to almost border the page so that it might pop out more.
The objects I used work well for contrast so that they stick out well.

 P.A.R.C for Wash Your Hands:
There wasn't a whole lot of grouping done for this I feel. I din't use a wide variety of different colors or anything and there wasn't a lot of text I felt was needed.
I used Center and Right to align my text, perhaps so that it catches the eye? Maybe confuse someone and then Whoa, their reading about washing their hands.
Used simple colors and a border to make it pop.
I feel as if you may focus on the picture of this poster more than the text. Not really the best option, but hey. Someone will see water and hands and be like Whoa, again.

STAY HOME IF YOU'RE SICK.
I grouped all the reasons to stay home so maybe people will see it and think to themselves that they have all those symptoms, maybe they should stay home.
Alignment I used was Left and Center. Again, to make people read it in a pleasing way.
Brighter colors were used so it pops off the page hopefully and people see it in their peripheral vision. I as well included photo's to catch attention.
Mainly brighter colors so it is seeable and looks like danger on a piece of printer paper.







And here we are. First project of the year. A gloriously simple and kind of displeasing poster for Spirit Week.
P.A.R.C for this was a nightmare in a graduated Blue and white.
When grouping these together I basically just put it all on there and hoped it would look fantastic.
A center and Left alignment was used just because it seemed the most logical at the time.
I used many, many, many colors to try and make it stand out. Two fonts. And zero shapes.
The background of the image is a lightish blue shade mostly and fades to whet so I tried to make the text either brighter or darker in colors to make them easier to see.
