A Commercial and Poster for the company (Uganda Tourism Association)

Although it is a school project, I had to do it with passion. The previous week, we had learnt how to use Adobe Premire Pro which would assist us in video creation. It was a really interesting lesson that day, playing with sound and image. To produce a clear commercial for my company (Uganda Tourism Association) and a poster, I decided to download images on Uganda from google, i.e. every thing that is fascinating in Uganda, such as, the wildlife, the cultures, the nature and much more.
I also had to download some audio clips using a software called Ares 2.09.3030. I then downloaded jungle sounds such as birds, lions, etc and some African drums. Choosing the right sound for this video was kind of frustrating because I had to test all sounds before I chose the final one that gets my full attention, but in the end I liked what I had done. I also have to upload it to Youtube. This video is a taste of my motherland, and I am proud to be Ugandan.
But first, let's take a look at the poster I created using Adobe Photoshop CS2 software. Basically, I choose the colours of the Ugandan flag and one very interesting animal, the gorilla. I also had to include a logo for my company, which was also created using Adobe Photoshop CS2. Effects were added to make the poster more appealing and I choose to also make it A3 portrait. I love simplicity in design so the design for the poster is actually something simple, hence making it unique.The video is really fascinating!!
