Principle of Design Guidelines

Create Emphasis (word "DISNEY" is the FOCAL POINT)

• DISNEY letters: Created from WordArt with a picture fill effect using a photograph from the Disney Photo Gallery
• Negative space (background): Includes a two clip art images from the Clip Art Gallery, a rectangle filled with gradient, drawings of Mickey and Cinderellas's castle
• Positive space (foreground): Focal point fills 75 percent of the postcard

Produce Rhythm (repetition of fill effects, colors, and shapes)

• Repeated shapes are created by the WordArt letters
• Repeated fill effects
  • Use colors from the Unit 8 Notes Worksheet
  • Image quality of the six photographs that are used
  • Image quality of the two clip art images that are used

Achieve Balance (symmetric design)

• Placement of WordArt word "DISNEY"
• Placement of words in the designer font at the top left and bottom right corners
• Placement of clip art

Attain Unity (pick a style and stick with it)

• Color scheme: Use same colors as listed on Unit 8 Notes Worksheet
• Fonts used for words in upper left and bottom right corners
