Hi people,
I have been commisioned to produce a poster advertisement for a design/fashion orientated clothes shop, the dimensions will be 6 x 3 foot, just wondering if anyone had any tips for designing for this type of industry and at this type of size.
I have not designed anything close to this size before and I am starting to run into a few types of problems:
1. How the hell do I make make my images look less pixelated at this size, I have shot the photos at the highest res. my digital camera will allow (2048 x 1536) but it still looks pretty bad against a large canvas.
2. Should I limit my artwork (in detail) considering that its a shop window display poster?
3. I am competent in Illustrator as well as Photoshop, with it being a large format poster, would it be best to produce something in Illustrator so that I can resize it, whilst retaining smooth edges?
Any help would be greatly appreciated
Thanks
