 * Pre-Unit exercise (if any)**

__//**Exercise 1 :**//__

= INVESTIGATION =

The current situation/problem:
People in our school are not aware with safety problems, so to solve this problem I am going to create a safety poster.

The Design Brief
What I am going to do is that I am going to create a safety poster, I can make it very colourful and interesting as I want, as long as it shows the safety hazard clearly.

The Design Specification
You must decide if want to attract people from near or far. It should at least have three common safety signs. You must have at least 5 different pictures. You must re-size all of your images they must not be more then 100KB. You must print your picture at about A2 or A3 size so it can be shown clearly and you must even laminate it. All of the layers you have must have a certain name. FINALLY!!!!!!!!! you have finished your safety poster and it is ready to put up in the I.C.T room.

Tests
Look at the poster from near and far and see which way attracts your attention more. Walk pass it without noticing it and see if it catches your attention. Check that you have made the pictures the right size. Check if you have print the right size of the poster. Look around the I.C.T lab and see if your poster was good enough to go on the wall.

= DESIGN =

Design 1
__//**All my layers :**//__

1. Warning! title. 2. Caution sign. 3. Watch The Computers title. 4. Computers picture. 5. Door picture.

Design 2
__//**All my layers**// //**:**//__

1. Caution title. 2. Do Not Run In The Corridors title. 3. Band Sign. 4. Caution Sign.

Design 3
__//**All my layers :**//__

1. Caution title. 2. Steps Ahead title. 3. Steps Ahead Caution Sign. 4. Caution Sign.

The design I have chosen is design two because it agrees with most of my design specification. Design two has three common safety signs, all the layers have been named and it attracts people from near so that is why I have chosen design two.The reason I did not choose design one and three is because design one barley agrees to the design specification and it does not attract people from near or far. Why I did not choose design three is because it did not have many safety signs, it only had two so it kind of looked dull, so that is why I chose design two.

= CREATE =

//** Thing's I added and that are different: **//


 * I added two more caution signs so it looks better and one is red and the other is orange.
 * I added a picture to make my create look better.
 * I added an X to show not to run in the corridors.
 * I changed the background to green instead of white so it must show more colour at that it can attract people.

//** Screenshots: **//









EVALUATE From my point of view I think that my last product was very good.Because it followed most of my design specification and it is very attractive. I done some changes in my product like, adding more pictures so it does not look dull and giving it a better background so it attracts people and sends them a clear message.


 * **//__Design Specification:__//** || **//Results//** || **//Why?//** ||  ||
 * Does it attract people from near or far? || Yes || Because it has a very good background and the pictures are well placed. ||  ||
 * Does it have three common safety signs? || Yes || Because it makes it better and you can look at different things rather than one thing and get bored looking at it. ||  ||
 * Do you have five different pictures? || Yes || Because it does not make it look dull. ||  ||
 * Have you re-sized all the pictures and they are no more than 100KB || Yes || Because www.bmisclass2010.wikispaces.com does not allow to store big stuff. ||  ||
 * Have you printed your picture at about A2 or A3 size so it can be shown clearly and you have even laminated it? || Not Yet || Because we have not got the chance to. ||  ||
 * Do all your layers have a certain name? || Yes || Because it is easier to find them and it links to your wikispaces page. ||  ||
 * Have you finished your safety poster and is it ready to put up in the I.C.T room? || Yes || Because I have finished it. ||  ||

Yes it does with all the different pictures and colours. || Yes it does with the different bright colours. || Yes I made them the right size. || We have not got the chance to. || No one’s posters have gone up. || I really enjoyed this unit I found GIMP very easy to use and it was my first time photo-shopping. I done my very best in this unit and I have learned allot since it was my first time like making layers re-sizing pictures cropping and much more.
