Poster Design Brief

We need a giant wall poster to advertise the books in our middle school classroom libraries. The measurements are roughly 4 feet by 8 feet. Please refer to the first two attachments I have provided File 1 and File 2.

We would prefer a template so that teachers could drag and drop the book covers in just before we send it to the printer. Please take note of the sample posters we have in the past. Use this as a reference, but I'd like to see a different and a more creative layout.

In the poster, make sure to include the following book genres:
Make you laugh
Make you cry
Make you think
Inform you
Thrill you
Inspire you
Challenge you

I am looking for a creative reinvention. Here's a link to the library of photos of students with their favourite books: http://bit.ly/1OImkq3

*In the poster make room for at least 50 recommended book covers, the genre groupings don't have to remain the same.

Requirements
Must have
  • Title, images of children with books, school logo, be noticeably different than the previous posters attached, room for at least 50 recommended book covers, the genre groupings don't have to remain the same.
  • Here is a link to a google folder to images of students with books:
  • Students with favourite books: http://bit.ly/1OImkq3
  • Attached the school logos and colors as well as some other possibly helpful resources.
Nice to have
  • Color, playfulness, fun
  • A completely different layout to what we have had before, but we still need landscape orientation, which makes it tricky. A flowchart like this (http://static1.1.sqspcdn.com/static/f/482333/14595844/1318428332943/SciFi+100+Books.jpg?token=WmCaDHQSts8lJtHiXkonoIwJMug%3D) might be interesting.
Should not have
  • same boring layout as previous posters--this is why I am paying for a graphic designer--I can design a basic poster myself, but we want something more interesting/innovative than in the last couple years.
