Digital Poster Design: Combining Images & Type for Powerful Visuals

Join 2019 Adobe Creative Resident Temi Coker to embrace a visual art project that will spark your creativity, inspire new Photoshop techniques, and polish a striking digital poster that celebrates someone you love!

In this 90-minute class, you'll join designer and artist Temi Coker to learn his inspiring approach to combining image and type to create bold visual designs. You'll start with a simple photograph, add expressive elements, and transform it into a striking digital poster that celebrates your subject and makes a statement.

The prompt is inspired by Temi's own "Poster-a-Day" project, where he created nearly two dozen posters to celebrate beauty and individuals he admired, uniquely bringing together photography, imagery, and words in striking designs.

In every video lesson, you'll go behind-the-scenes with Temi to explore examples, demonstration, and practical tips to guide you in your own poster project. You'll learn:

• Thoughtful ways to develop your conceptual artistry
• How to take photographs that work for editing
