Five-A-Day

Digital Posters

You must produce a sequence of four digital posters for children. They must:

• run continuously in sequence on a screen
• be suitable for use on a large screen
• follow the given outline for areas that must stay the same on all posters
• draw attention to unhealthy snacks
• suggest suitable alternatives
• persuade younger students to try out your Five A Day Check.

The posters must be fun to look at and include suitable images to help to get the message across.

Ideas for information for your Digital posters can be found on these sites:

You could do the opposite to some of these and show the benefits of healthy snacks.

Use a storyboard to design the posters. The outline Storyboard.doc shows the areas that must be the same on all four posters and the area that must change. (rtf).

Ask for feedback from test users and make any necessary changes.
Create your digital posters. Check them carefully and make sure that each one is displayed for long enough to allow viewers to read it.

Make use of feedback from suitable test users to ensure that the posters will appeal to children and persuade them to try the Five A Day Check.
Save the posters for your eportfolio.

Mark Checklist
Ask suitable reviewers for comments on your digital posters. Keep a record of what they say so that you can use it in your project review.
