Poster design skills:
Composition skills, in addition to the contrast skills in the use of colors, need to be learned and mastered, there are also several contrasts that need to be considered relation. Such as the contrast of thick and thin in composition techniques, the contrast of far and near in composition techniques, the contrast of density in composition techniques, the contrast of static and dynamic composition techniques, and the contrast of Chinese and Western composition techniques. Comparison of ancient and modern composition techniques, etc.
1. Thickness contrast in composition techniques: The so-called thickness contrast refers to the colors used in the composition process and the style formed by the patterns composed of colors. In calligraphy and painting works, we know There is a theory of meticulous brushwork and freehand brushwork, or both meticulous brushwork and freehand brushwork appear together in the same picture (like the Chinese painting master Qi Baishi's paintings of cabbages and grasshoppers). This style is an expression technique often used in packaging composition.
For this kind of thickness contrast, some are the contrast between the main pattern and the foil pattern; some are the contrast between the central pattern and the background pattern; some are as rough as the wind sweeping away the remaining clouds, while the other side is as exquisite as a gossamer; Some replace patterns with wild calligraphy, which can be seen anywhere and anytime in some wine and food packaging. This is the case with Missing Brand Dumplings and Rejoice Brand Shampoo.
2. The contrast between far and near in composition techniques. In the composition of traditional Chinese landscape painting, study the near, middle and distant views. In the design of packaging patterns, based on the same principle, the near, middle and far scenes should also be divided into three types. level of composition.
The so-called near refers to the most eye-catching part of the pattern in a picture, also called the first visual impact. This most eye-catching part is also the most important content to be expressed in the packaging pattern. For example, Shuanghui was the first to use When looking at the packaging of instant noodles, the first thing that catches people's sight is the Shuanghui trademark on a blank background and the huge white "Shuanghui" characters on a dark red square background (i.e. close-up).
The following are the smaller main characters of "Braised Beef Noodles" in cursive script (should be said to be the second line of sight, also called the middle shot), and then the product photos describing the contents of the package (also called the third line of sight). line of sight, bounded by the middle shot) and then followed by auxiliary corporate mascot slogans, performance descriptions, corporate logos, etc.
This obvious sense of hierarchy is also called the three-step rule of vision. It takes into account people's habit of looking at a still life picture from top to bottom and from right to left, and at the same time highlights the most important aspects to express. the topic part. As a designer, when creating a picture, you should first understand the theme you want to appeal to, and create an atmosphere where the stars support the moon and stand out from the crowd. As a result, the powerful magnetic force of the design image tightly pulls the marketer's attention.
3. Contrast between density and density in composition techniques: Speaking of contrast between density and density in composition techniques, this is very similar to the contrast between traditional and simplified colors used, and is also very similar to the Feibai in Chinese painting, that is, the concentration of light in the pattern. There must be diffusion in every place, and it should not be concentrated or diffused. It embodies a kind of coordination of density and density, with clear rhythm, tension and relaxation, showing emptiness.
At the same time, the theme remains prominent. The author has seen many packaging pattern designs. The entire picture is densely packed with colorful colors. From the background pattern to the theme pattern, it is all very heavy color expression, which makes people feel depressed and breathless. This does not only fail to beautify the product. , the purpose of promoting sales, on the contrary, makes people feel bored and lack appetite. This is caused by not grasping the contrast between density and density.
4. Static and dynamic contrast in composition techniques: In a pattern, we often find this phenomenon, that is, an explosive pattern or pattern displayed in the background or surrounding the name of a packaging theme. It looks careless, but in fact it is a few crazy thick lines painted on purpose, or streamer-shaped English or patterns, etc., all of which express a "" feeling.
The theme name is dignified and steady while the background is light and calm. This scene is the contrast between stillness and movement. This kind of contrast avoids the gimmicky and too quiet rigidity of both designs. So the visual effect feels comfortable. In line with people's normal aesthetic psychology.
5. The contrast between China and the West in composition techniques. This contrast often uses the combination of Western painting cartoon techniques and traditional Chinese techniques or the combination of Chinese sinology art and English in the packaging design.
As well as directly using realistic techniques to highlight photos or certain scenes of Westerners on packaging patterns. This form of expression is also a common reference method, which is used in children's products and women's products. Packaging often appears on socks, clothing or cosmetics.
6. Comparison of ancient and modern composition techniques: both the foreign and the ancient are used for China. Especially in order to reflect a cultural taste, people often use ancient classic patterns and calligraphy in packaging design compositions. , characters, and patterns are used in current packaging, which is most clearly reflected in the packaging of wine.
For example: the wine and Taibai wine in the picture of the Twelve Golden Hairpin Ladies in Dream of Red Mansions, as well as the Mid-Autumn Mooncakes and Black Lao Bao Peanuts in food, all reflect and explore the connotation from these aspects. In addition, there are some high-end gift boxes for cosmetics and daily necessities whose decorations and patterns are also grafted from classical culture. This can give people a sense of antiqueness, elegance and inner pursuit or a certain aspect of comfort. So it is very popular with consumers.
