  19. Thank You for your Future Entries! Here are the requirements and some tips to make your poster the winning one.

  20. CASH AWARDS • Awards for poster/billboard contest: • 1st Place: $500 • 2nd Place: $300 • 3rd Place: $200

  21. Poster Requirements • 12" X 26" Cardboard or mat board • Black and White and/or two colors (gray counts as a color) • Horizontal Design Scheme • Colored markers, paints , or mixed media colors

  22. Tips • The outdoor viewing audience is mostly mobile. Mobility limits the potential viewing time of an outdoor message to only a few seconds. • The most effective designs focus on a single idea. • Humor is a powerful design choice and the element of surprise can grab a viewer’s attention as well.

  23. Tips • It is essential that outdoor designs are easy to read. • Choose colors with high contrast in both hue and value. • FONTS selected for outdoor designs must be easy to read from variable distances.

  24. Tips • Adequate spacing between letters, words and lines will enhance visibility. • The relative size of letter characters is also an important consideration. Words comprised of both upper and lower characters are generally easier to read than words constructed solely of capital letters. • Information taken from “A Guide For Designing Effective Advertising” http://www.oaaa.org/pdf/Creative_book.pdf

  25. Disability is… • The limitation of normal physical, mental, social activity of an individual. There are varying types (functional, occupational, learning), degrees (partial, total), and durations (temporary, permanent) of disability.

  26. Examples of Disabilities • Mental Retardation • A developmental disorder characterized by a subnormal ability to learn and a substantially low IQ. • Mental Illness • Any of various conditions characterized by impairment of an individual's normal cognitive, emotional, or behavioral functioning, and caused by social, psychological, biochemical, genetic, or other factors, such as infection or head trauma.

  27. Disability Types • Cerebral Palsy • A form of paralysis believed to be caused by a prenatal brain defect or by brain injury during birth, most marked in certain motor areas and characterized by difficulty in control of the voluntary muscles. • Deaf • Partially or wholly lacking or deprived of the sense of hearing; unable to hear.

  28. Disability Types • Blindness • Unable to see; lacking the sense of sight. • Multiple Sclerosis • A chronic degenerative, often episodic disease of the central nervous system marked by patchy destruction of the myelin that surrounds and insulates nerve fibers, usually appearing in young adulthood and manifested by one or more mild to severe neural and muscular impairments.
