This was the first draft submission for the "mini Mardi Gras" poster composition and text layout. The poster met with a few challenges to overcome. 12"X18" final size, but mainly having to work on a bilingual (French & English) poster. Having both languages takes up more real estate, especially with a poster which isn't that big. I decided to split the text down the middle and to keep it at the bottom. Depending on the height that the poster is posted on a wall, I placed the text at the bottom to insure legibility.
