1. Contrast: I changed the shape of the picture. I kept the information in the same boxes but I
did changed the color of the boxes. I have the contrast be the shapes and colors used on the
poster. I like my Eiffel Tower posters the same. I like how I made the picture box on this
poster but the lay out of the first poster because it looks more like an informational poster.
2. Contrast: I changed the way I positioned the text boxes. The color with the text
boxes contrast with the color of the picture box. I like the way the yellow catches
my eye but I like the way I had my first Statue of Liberty poster. I like the flow-y-ness
of my first poster. It looks better to me.
3. Repetition: I kept the basic color scheme but I made all the boxes have all the same
color and layout. I added the arrows to have a visual line to follow. I like the way this
poster is laid out better than my first one because it is tells more of a story and is
easier to follow than the random boxes of my first poster.
4. New vs. Old Pyramids
The pyramids in Giza, Egypt were constructed during the fourth, fifth
and sixth Dynasties. The pyramids that were ones of the first ones to
be constructed are better built than the newer pyramids. This is
unique because you would think that the newer ones would have
better tools to make the pyramids sturdier than what was available
during the older ones.
5. 4 Tons! Is the weight of
some of the stones in
Stonehenge.
Stonehenge is located in
Amesbury, United Kingdom.
When Stonehenge was first
constructed, about 5,000 year
ago, it used to have more stones
than what it does today. Because
we do not know how
Stonehenge was truly made
there is a lot of guess work
when it comes to how
Stonehenge was created.
