10 Tips for Making Your
Poster Display
|
- Plan out your display ahead of time.
- Displays should be made up of pieces that can be easily
assembled and fastened to the bulleting board at the conference.
- Bring thumbtacks, pushpins, tape and other fastening devices
to attach the various pieces to the board when you are at the
conference.
- You won't get the actual poster until the conference, so
sketch out your layout on 2 pieces of flipchart paper the size of
the poster (4x8). to make sure everything fits.
- Any text on the poster should be brief and concise. Your
smallest type should be easy to read from a distance of two feet.
- Make sure that the captions are easily associated with the
pictures they go with.
- Photographs and diagrams must be clear and large enough to be
easily identified from a distance of ten feet.
- Your pictures and your titles, not your text, are what draw
people. Prioritize them and make them visible and
interesting.
- Your display will not present itself. Interact with the
people who view your display. Have a couple of sentences or
questions in mind that will grab the attention of your audience.
- Make sure your colors contrast instead of blend together.
This will make your poster much easier to read and identify from a
distance.
