Halloween Poster


I created this Halloween poster for the purpose of supporting the spirit of halloween. The design elements I chose are making the color of the poster dark enough so that you can see most of the tree, which makes the moon in the background appear to be glowing. I wanted the upper part of the tree and the grave stones to be visible  but not bright enough so that everything is visible. I put the text on the right-hand side of the poster because it's out of the way of the rest of the picture and not overlapping a lot of the tree or gravestones. The font is orange in the Curlz MT which gives it a very prominent "spooky, but friendly" feeling that the first pagan celebrators of Halloween represent. The font is easy to read and properly placed to where it does not interfere with the picture. I learned how to use a mask and how to use the tracing tool.
