Reflection
I created a poster on methods of (online) advertising. I described the different ways of online advertising on my poster using fun colours and an organised layout. I created the poster using Microsoft Word. I enjoy creating posters therefor I enjoyed creating this one in Digital Design class. Next time I can maybe use darker but still colourful colours. I also enjoyed writing about the advantages and disadvantages of the methods,  but some of the advantages and disadvantages were quite hard to write. I would happily do this task again and I enjoyed doing it a lot. Here is how I made the poster:
First I opened up Microsoft Word.
Then I opened up google and went to a website (link on my poster) about online advertising.
Now I changed up the words a little bit and began writing on my poster.
When I was complete I gave it a title and added some pictures and font colour!
Making posters in Digital Design class is one of my favourite things to do. I enjoy presenting information in a fun, colourful and well organised way! I also learned a lot about the different ways of advertising and the advantages and disadvantages of online advertising. I feel that the best way to advertise is on Social Media as it has many users.
