Focus on the topic of Weather Illness Prevention (heat stroke/dehydration illness, cold stress). Don’t overwhelm the person reading with too much information.

Question

Create a hierarchy of information. Choose the information from the above list that’s most important and make it the main element of the poster. Every piece of information in your poster should be weighted according to its importance.
Remember, less is more. Don’t overwhelm. Keep it simple BUT include required information.
Use your space wisely. Don’t use every inch of white space because you can. Leave some “breathing room” so people can digest your message.
Use contrasting colors. Make sure that your text is readable meaning the text color and background compliment each other. And don't use too many different fonts.
Review and edit. Have at least one other person who isn’t working on your ad read it over to make sure there aren’t spelling errors, incorrect information or missing information
