Research into Wordpress Interface

As I have no experience using Wordpress, I wanted to investigate the interface so that I was familiar with editing the website.

After logging in as an administrator, I first attempted to add a different theme to the already-existing website however this ruined the layout of the page which included the content, imagery, image slider, icons etc.

Initially I thought that the original designer had added code to the back-end of the site which caused this problem. I decided to tackle the moving image carasole as this was causing the main problem to layout. I thought this may have been coded in however I found a plugin I believed was responsible for  this feature and decided to de-activate it.

With this removed, the layout looked better but still didn't follow the theme that I had chosen.

Design decisions included attempting to remove images/content/slider to understand how workpress.org worked. On reflection I would have need to learn more prior to using Wordpress.org by either following video tutorials or online courses which would allow me to manipulate the layout and images further.

[Research] Traditional Poster Design (4CTA1214)

Image
As you can see from the superman poster, there are only four main colours used which includes red, blue, yellow and brown. All elements are filled in with block colours with no shading which was a common colour theme for traditional posters of this kind. This poster may have been used to advertise a new Superman comic or movie depending on the year it was created. The expression on the characters face fits the title shown on the poster explaining that he is returning. This poster advertised Coca Cola, and looks as though this specific poster was used in the USA - due to the currency used. The whole aim of the poster is to incorporate this drink into working peoples daily lives. This is seen by the slogan, 'Work refreshed' and the small graphics on the bottom right of the poster. Displayed is a man working in a factory environment and a lady is working in an office environment both drinking cola during their breaks - to feel refreshed. In some ways the bottle and
