5. Use Plenty of Space.
Use exaggerated spacing between elements. The extra
spacing will dramatically increase visual impact and
readability at distances.
There are a few places where extra space can work
wonders in poster design:
 Between individual letters. Tight kerning can cause
letters to blur at distances.
 Between lines of text.
 Around interior margins of the canvas.
 Between elements of different types, such as

images and text.
 Around the most important element in the design.

6. Include a Call to Action.
The goal of every poster is to expose people to
something. Most of these “touches” involve
inviting someone to something, such as a concert
or movie or other event. For that reason, a call to
action is vital. The call to action is often the event
information or a contact point in poster design.

7. Create Focus with Typography.
Poster design is one of those places where you can really
go crazy with beautiful typography.
Do experiment with bolder, wider, bigger typefaces that
you might feel comfortable with.
