of weeks; collecting images, looking at POS displays in the shops and making thumbnail sketches. While this was helpful there was also a moment where the ideas felt almost limitless \u2013 from bowls of fruit, saucepans of steaming vegetables, to piles of individual fruit or fruit\/veg shaped layouts.<\/p>\n<p>I decided that I would go for backlit slices of fruit, as they are both colourful and intriguing, they show the structures of the fruit and vegetables in a way that I thought might be unfamiliar and would encourage curiosity. I wanted to try something that was less obvious. I also wanted an approach that could showcase some of the variety of what might be available to buy.<\/p>\n<p><strong><span style=\"color: #333333;\">Visualising ideas<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Lots of slicing later I took a range of photographs that I thought my work using a lightbox to provide even backlighting. Having worked on the visual approach I then focused on the text, this posed a new dilemma, as arguably the right visuals might be able to stand without any text. Given the brief I decided I would add some text but it needed to be simple, easily recognisable and work at a distance.<\/p>\n<p>I worked on a range of approaches:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Alliteration &#8211; Fabulous fruit, Various vegetables, Virtuous vegetables, Feel Fabulous, Feeling Fruity! \u2026<\/li>\n<li>Health benefits \u2013 5 a day \u2013 \u2018Don\u2019t forget your five a day,\u2019 \u2018Fruit five ways,\u2019 \u2018Have you had your 5 today?\u2019<\/li>\n<li>Puns \u2013 \u2018Take your pick,\u2019 \u2018Pick me! \u2019 \u2018Peas on Earth,\u2019 etc. I liked the idea of some fruit\/veg related jokes which might appeal to children and encourage them to want fruit\/veg but I wasn\u2019t sure they would be easily seen from outside the shop<\/li>\n<li>Simple recipes \u2013 illustrations of some quick and easy recipes, like Grilled Pink Grapefruit with honey, or a quick green smoothie<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>In working through the different approaches I thought some were too complicated. I wanted the display to focus on a positive message about eating fruit and veg, reminding me of the various \u2018I heart\u2026\u2019 slogans, which I then discovered was created by Milton Glaser for the \u2018I love NY\u2019 campaign. This kept it very simple and I decided to use it for the text although I thought I would leave out the \u2018I\u2019 and make it a more general statement.<\/p>\n<p>I played with placement of the text and having got some feedback I decided I preferred the version with the slogan to the right hand side, with some white space around it. I created these versions in Photoshop because I could mock them up quickly. If I were to develop them further I would use Illustrator to create a smooth vector version.<\/p>\n<p>At this point I thought I had finished, but then! I decided to try and go for a font close to Glaser\u2019s original so found \u2018Another Typewriter\u2019, which I really liked with the visuals.<\/p>\n<p>But then\u2026! I looked again at some of my earlier sketches that were based on an idea to make the fruit\/veg in the shape of hearts. I had sketched there being four types on a poster but when I placed the orange slice I decided to go for one \u2013 given that the poster needs to be seen from a distance. Some puppet warp later and I had two new versions which I felt worked better than the other posters.<\/p>\n<p>I liked their simplicity and I felt they worked with the brief to attract buyers into the shop. Although I have kept the text to single words there is space to add logos or other information if needed.<\/p>\n\n\t\t<style type=\"text\/css\">\n\t\t\t#gallery-3 {\n\t\t\t\tmargin: auto;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t#gallery-3 .gallery-item {\n\t\t\t\tfloat: left;\n\t\t\t\tmargin-top: 10px;\n\t\t\t\ttext-align: center;\n\t\t\t\twidth: 50%;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t#gallery-3 img {\n\t\t\t\tborder: 2px solid #cfcfcf;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t#gallery-3 .gallery-caption {\n\t\t\t\tmargin-left: 0;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t\/* see gallery_shortcode() in wp-includes\/media.php *\/\n\t\t<\/style>\n\t\t<div data-carousel-extra='{\"blog_id\":1,\"permalink\":\"https:\\\/\\\/graphics.learningpictures.co.uk\\\/index.php\\\/2016\\\/11\\\/20\\\/exercise-point-of-sale-display\\\/\"}' id='gallery-3' class='gallery galleryid-355 gallery-columns-2 gallery-size-medium'><dl class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<dt class='gallery-icon portrait'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/graphics.learningpictures.co.uk\/index.php\/2016\/11\/20\/exercise-point-of-sale-display\/love-fruit_orange-heart_web\/'><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"212\" height=\"300\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/graphics.learningpictures.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/11\/Love-Fruit_orange-heart_web-e1479659670466.jpg?fit=212%2C300&amp;ssl=1\" class=\"attachment-medium size-medium\" alt=\"Yellow poster with slice of orange in shape of a heart &amp;

This helps keep me open to different ideas and not become too wedded to an initial idea or solution. It also reinforced for me the value of mocking up early ideas however crude.<\/p>\n<p>In all honesty I was a little disappointed with the first posters, as they didn\u2019t have quite the crispness or clarity I was looking for. Although I like the effect of the backlit fruit and veg I think in the end it was too busy and complicated (I also forgot to include the celery which has irritated me ever since!).<\/p>\n<p>I did keep to the \u2018love\u2019 notion as it gave me the simplicity I thought the design needed and was easily seen at a distance. It is also in keeping with advice around enjoying fruit and veg, and encouraging more balanced diets.<\/p>\n<p>The final design choice might be regarded as too simplistic but in looking at fruit &amp; veg points of sales in local supermarkets there is a tendency towards pictures of the fruit\/veg with very simple slogans. Few have logos or wider information.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"border-radius: 2px; text-indent: 20px; width: auto; padding: 0px 4px 0px 0px; text-align: center; font: bold 11px\/20px 'Helvetica Neue',Helvetica,sans-serif; color: #ffffff; background: #bd081c no-repeat scroll 3px 50% \/ 14px 14px; position: absolute; opacity: 1; z-index: 8675309; display: none; cursor: pointer;\">Save<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"border-radius: 2px; text-indent: 20px; width: auto; padding: 0px 4px 0px 0px; text-align: center; font: bold 11px\/20px 'Helvetica Neue',Helvetica,sans-serif; color: #ffffff; background: #bd081c no-repeat scroll 3px 50% \/ 14px 14px; position: absolute; opacity: 1; z-index: 8675309; display: none; cursor: pointer; top: 2323px; left: 122px;\">Save<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"border-radius: 2px; text-indent: 20px; width: auto; padding: 0px 4px 0px 0px; text-align: center; font: bold 11px\/20px 'Helvetica Neue',Helvetica,sans-serif; color: #ffffff; background: #bd081c no-repeat scroll 3px 50% \/ 14px 14px; position: absolute; opacity: 1; z-index: 8675309; display: none; cursor: pointer;\">Save<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"border-radius: 2px; text-indent: 20px; width: auto; padding: 0px 4px 0px 0px; text-align: center; font: bold 11px\/20px 'Helvetica Neue',Helvetica,sans-serif; color: #ffffff; background: #bd081c no-repeat scroll 3px 50% \/ 14px 14px; position: absolute; opacity: 1; z-index: 8675309; display: none; cursor: pointer;\">Save<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"border-radius: 2px; text-indent: 20px; width: auto; padding: 0px 4px 0px 0px; text-align: center; font: bold 11px\/20px 'Helvetica Neue',Helvetica,sans-serif; color: #ffffff; background: #bd081c  no-repeat scroll 3px 50% \/ 14px 14px; position: absolute; opacity: 1; z-index: 8675309; display: none; cursor: pointer;\">Save<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Exercise (pg.52 Graphic Design One): Your local greengrocer has asked you to produce a point of sale display to go above the fruit and vegetables in their shop.
