Disney poster


Another great poster taken at Disneyland. As you enter the park and walk through one of the two tunnels check out a number of retro posters on the walls.

Disneyland - Toy Story Ride Graphics

A few months back I blogged about the Toy Story ride at Disneyland. I commented on how great the posters were that decorated the walls of the ride. I was back at Disneyland this weekend and took some photos of the posters along with a lot of other stuff that I will share in the not so distant future.

The line was about an hour long so I got to look at the posters in detail. There isn't a large block of solid color anywhere. Patterns and textures fill the whole poster but enhance the message, not detract from it. The red in the center brings your eye straight to it (as does the angle of the main box, tapering towards the center) and on the way guides you through all the information you need to know.

Here's another one, same principles, red in the middle and all the elements work together to bring your eye to the center. Even the cartoon characters are facing into the scene.
